Rios is as luxuriously soft as its sister base Malabrigo Worsted . The plies help resist pilling and washability makes it fantastic for frequently-worn garments.
We source our fiber from an amazing family-owned yarn company located in Uruguay and Peru called Malabrigo. They have developed a line of Hand-Dyed yarns of incredible softness and wonderful color variations, produced mostly by women of all ages. These colorful yarns are made out of the softest fibers available and inspired by nature, as well as landscapes, places, art and day-to-day life.
Malabrigo wool is 100 % produced by farms that allow their free-range sheep through the hills and are herded by actual old – style shepherds. The controversial practice of mulesing does not exist in Uruguay. When using Merino wool of a different origin, they make sure it is also mulesing-free. By using Malabrigo, you make sure your fiber art is sustainable and ethical.Â
As Malabrigo’s yarns are hand-dyed, colors may vary from skein to skein, even within the same dye lot. This is increased by variegated color. Make sure to get enough yarn for your project. Â
