Malabrigo Yarn Rasta AMPHIBIAN #274 From Madre Terra Collection

Introducing a brand-new collection of colors to the Rasta line, "Madre Tierra" (Mother Earth) This collection features nature-inspired hues that capture the essence of the life forms and ecosystems that compose it.

Malabrigo team says, "Rasta in Spanish means “dreadlock”, and is also how we refer in Spanish to a very thick cord like our yarn. A lightly-fulled single-ply yarn of magnum proportions! Whip out a super-cozy accessory in just hours with this super-sized delight of a yarn. Our premium Uruguayan merino is just as soft as ever, and Rasta comes in a range of our unique “watercolor multi” colorways as well as a rainbow of semi-solid basics. Unbelievably squishy, this is the yarn to turn to when you want the ultimate in warmth (or the ultimate in speed!)"
