We have just begun to stock the most beautiful Malabrigo yarns and pattern books.
ABOUT MALABRIGO THE COMPANY:
Malabrigo is a family owned yarn company located in Uruguay and they have developed a line of Hand-Dyed yarns of incredible softness and wonderful color variations. Their products are made out of the softest fibers available and inspired by nature, as well as landscapes, places, art, and day-to-day life. This is what they try to represent when naming their 18 yarn varieties and the range of over 300 colors they come in.
Malabrigo produces yarn because they are passionate about it. They believe in the pleasure of knitting with good-quality, carefully designed, subtly dyed yarns and in the joy of wearing whatever is made out of them.
Malibrigo's wish is to continue developing yarns and colors to inspire people all over the world, and in return be inspired by them.
More information on the Malabrigo story and their Malabrigo yarn, patterns, etc., can be found on their website: http://www.malabrigoyarn.com
We are presently offering a selection of the following:
MALABRIGO CARACOL YARN (blog photo):
https://www.tuppysaussiefabrics.com/search?q=malabrigo+caracol
Truly a unique yarn! You start with a bulky thick-and-thin single made of Malabrigo's delightfully soft superwash merino wool, and then they criss-cross it with a binder thread (either black or white.) Then the yarn is dyed in one of their signature kettle-dyed colorways, and: poof! Something unlike any yarn they've made before, inspired by a particular style of handspun yarn. Caracol knits up into a cozy, fluffy fabric with a ton of texture and visual interest. Simple stitch patterns really let it sing!
Great for:
Warm winter accessories, big cozy afghans, and stockinette that's far from boring

SHIPPING YARN:
Because yarn is bulky, it immediately requires parcel post to send, no matter the weight and the shipping cost showing in your shopping cart is unlikely to be accurate.
Please rest assured that we will never overcharge you for shipping. We manually 'capture' authorised order payments and usually 'capture' only the correct shipping amount at this time. However occasionally, for big orders when we're not sure what shipping will be, we refund any postage overage once the parcel has been mailed.
Please allow 1 - 3 business days for your order to be processed and shipped. We ship on Monday, Thursday and Friday. If you require faster shipping please contact us, Express Post is available for an additional cost upon request.
We are happy to ship to Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Canada, United States, United Kingdom and most of Europe.
