The Details: A Dreamy Lace Foundation
Malabrigo Lace is designed for the knitter who enjoys the slow, rhythmic process of creating heirloom fabrics. Its generous yardage means most shawls can be completed with just one or two skeins. While it is delicate in appearance, the single-ply merino has enough strength to hold open lace motifs beautifully after blocking. It is a luxurious fiber that transforms every stitch into a work of art, offering a touch of Uruguayan-dyed magic to your most refined projects.
