Malabrigo Rios is a soft, durable worsted weight yarn made from premium superwash merino wool. Its 4-ply construction provides beautiful stitch definition while helping resist pilling, making Rios a versatile choice for garments, accessories, baby knits, blankets, and projects that will see plenty of wear.
Known for Malabrigo's rich hand-dyed colors, Rios is available in an incredible range of watercolor multis, semi-solids, and variegated colorways. Its softness makes it comfortable for next-to-skin wear, while the superwash merino makes it a practical choice for frequently worn pieces.

A Note About Hand-Dyed Yarn
Malabrigo yarns are hand dyed, so color can vary between skeins and dye lots. Be sure to purchase enough yarn for your entire project at one time. Even skeins from the same bag may vary slightly. For more even color distribution, alternate between two skeins every few rows when working on larger projects.
Please note that colors shown on your screen may vary from the yarn in person depending on your device and display settings.

Malabrigo Rios is one of my favorite variegated yarns. It is pleasantly soft and there are some of the most beautiful color options (which Malabrigos is famous for). A great pick for a worsted weight yarn. I'm currently using for the Tunisian crochet class.
Best yarn shop on the yarn crawl. Loved the selection and all their help. Great place to shop.
Soft and easy to work with
From my frind Nick who is using the yarn: Love the fabric this yarn creates, though did take quite a few swatches to figure out needle sizes. I can’t wait to finish my project and have something wearable at the end!
Very soft and relaxing.
