Malabrigo Mechita 999 Paprika
Malabrigo Mechita is a soft, single spun, 4 ply (fingering-weight) superwash pure merino, hand dyed as only Malabrigo knows how! Stunning rich colours combine with easy care washability, making this a tempting choice for shawls, scarves, garments, accessories, baby and children's garments, lace projects, cables, and textured stitches.
As all Malabrigo yarns are hand dyed and each one unique, there are colour variations between dye lots, so please ensure you purchase enough yarn to complete your project. Please note that variations occur within a dye lot, with each hank possessing its own unique colour distribution, so no two are exactly alike. This yarn is presented in a skein, so will require winding into a ball or cake before you start your project.
