Malabrigo Seis Cabos – Light Worsted 100% Merino Wool Yarn

Description Seis Cabos (“six plies” in Spanish) is Malabrigo’s take on a light worsted, high-twist merino. Six strands are tightly plied together to create a round, springy yarn that feels soft in the hand and holds its shape well. Spun from 100% super fine, non-superwash merino wool, Seis Cabos has a comfortable, lived-in feel with excellent elasticity. The round construction gives crisp stitch definition, so cables, twisted stitches, moss stitch, and simple ribbing all stand out cleanly. It works in a similar gauge range to Malabrigo Rios, but with a slightly lighter hand that’s easy to wear indoors or out. Malabrigo’s signature hand-dyed palette shines on this base, from soft neutrals to rich tonals and playful multis. As with all hand-dyed yarns, color can vary from skein to skein; for larger projects, we recommend alternating skeins every few rows for a smooth blend. Use Seis Cabos for: Everyday sweaters and cardigans Textured hats, mittens, and cowls Baby and kids garments and blankets Colorwork yoke pullovers and vests Cushions, throws, and other home accents If you like the feel and look of Rios but want a non-superwash option with a touch more structure, Seis Cabos is a great yarn to explore.
