How the yarn behaves

Malabrigo Verano (often called Verano Cotton) is a plied yarn made from Pima cotton, a long-staple fibre renowned for softness, strength and a subtle natural sheen. It is well suited to summer and transitional knits and crochet projects: lightweight tops, tunics, light cardigans, summer accessories, baby and children's items, homewares and amigurumi. Malabrigo's signature painterly, kettle-dyed colourways translate beautifully onto cotton, even though the techniques and dyes differ from their wool yarns. Cotton has minimal elasticity so the fabric drapes rather than stretches. Care: hand wash cool with mild detergent and dry flat. Alternate skeins to even out colour variation.
