Malabrigo Rasta is an ultra-soft, super bulky merino wool yarn designed for bold, modern projects that work up quickly and feel incredibly luxurious. Hand-dyed in small batches, each skein features rich, tonal color variations that make every piece truly one of a kind.
Spun from 100% merino wool, Rasta offers exceptional softness, warmth, and loft. Its thick, single-ply construction creates beautifully defined stitches with a cozy, chunky texture—perfect for statement pieces and quick, satisfying makes.
Whether you’re knitting or crocheting, Malabrigo Rasta delivers instant impact with minimal effort.
Malabrigo Rasta is hand-dyed, which means each skein is unique. Colors may vary slightly—or sometimes noticeably—between dye lots and even between skeins from the same batch, especially in variegated shades.
For best results, we recommend purchasing enough yarn to complete your project. To achieve a balanced color distribution, work from two skeins at once, alternating a few rows from each.
