The Malagrigo Rasta is gorgeous, chunky wool. The colors are magnificent. Thank you for keeping so much in stock and for your fast shipping. The sweater I made was a really special gift for my bestie. She loves it!

The yarn knits up beautifully, and is very easy to work with considering it’s a single ply chunky yarn. And of course the colors are stunning.

This is my third sweater with the same RASTA yarn. My three daughters will have matching sweaters. They all wanted one.
MARIE K.
My order came in a timely manner and I love the colors of Malabrigo. The one thing I don’t like is the smell! The yarn smells kind of vinegary. I guess it’s from the dye they use. My daughter was told to put a dryer sheet in the hat I made for her. I will have to try that on the one I made for myself.

I needed some extra yarn for my first knitting project. My daughter suggested the Costa to go with new living room furniture. I am attempting a throw and she designed an easy pattern for me to carry out. It has turned out beautifully. I decided to make the throw larger than originally planned and was thrilled to find some additional skeins. Thank you for shipping in a fast easy and most of all safe way so that the product I received was perfect.

I have been searching all over fir black Malabrigo Rasta and I finally found it here!!! Was hesitant to order because I have not had the best luck with receiving yarn from on line sites. But I will not hesitate to order from here again! I received it within days of ordering! I made for a very special gift!

Lovely, super bulky yarn for a super fun, super fast knit. Even made a matching hat for her mom!
