Step into a world of unparalleled beauty and inspiration with Malabrigo Rasta. Made from the finest lightly-fulled single-ply merino wool, Rasta in Spanish means “dreadlock”, and is also how they refer in Spanish to a very thick cord like this yarn. This extraordinary yarn is a testament to the artistry and passion of the creators at Malabrigo, conjuring up visions of vibrant colors, exceptional softness, and endless possibilities for your next project.

Each skein of Rasta is an indulgence in beauty, softness, and versatility with it's symphony of rich, hand-dyed hues and its irresistibly soft texture. Rasta comes in a range of unique watercolor multi colorways as well as a rainbow of semi-solid basics. 

Whether you're fashioning cozy sweaters, or whipping up bold statement accessories in mere hours, the unique character of Malabrigo Rasta Yarn weaves itself into every stitch, ensuring that your finished piece is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Great for: Quick knits, textured stitches, hats, cowls, scarves, outerwear.

Each batch of Malabrigo yarn is uniquely dyed, resulting in some variation from skein to skein. Please note that we are unable to track dye lots but will do our best to choose the closest matching skeins for your order.

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different 'dye lot', and skeins may vary from bag to bag. Skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. 

Note: Due to the nature of hand dyed yarn, colourways can vary greatly from the image presented.

      A beautiful little store with glorious yarns

      I bought two skeins of the most beautiful Malabrigo chunky yarn. It’s colours are stunning The cost of the yarn was very reasonable. I don’t get to Little Bow often enough but it’s my go-to LYS. The selection of quality yarns is excellent and so is the care and advice. Thank you 😊

      The softest

      Rasta is so great for making winter hats, although I’m making a complete cardigan from it and plan to line it with fabric. Should be scrumptious. Michelle is so helpful with choices and colours too
