Experience the Breathable Luxury of Malabrigo Verano

If you adore Malabrigo’s iconic hand-dyed artistry but need a lightweight, wool-free alternative for the warmer months, Verano is your perfect match. Crafted from 100% premium Pima Cotton, this DK-weight yarn offers a sophisticated, subtle sheen and a softness that feels incredible against the skin.

A Summer Project Tip: Most lightweight adult tanks and tees require 4–5 skeins. We recommend ordering your full project quantity at once to ensure a perfect color match from the same dye lot!

Here's why Verano is a favorite among makers-

Crisp Stitch Definition: Unlike wool, this silky cotton has no "fuzz," making it perfect for highlighting intricate cables, delicate lace, and textured summer knits.

The Wool-Free Luxury: A soft, hypoallergenic option that's gentle on sensitive skin. It’s perfect for crafted "modern heirloom" baby blankets, airy spa accessories, and daily summer wear.

Sophisticated Tonals: Our carefully selected "Safe Summer" palette features calming blues, mauves, and neutrals, seamlessly combining relaxed comfort with chic boutique style.

Technical Specifications:
Fiber: 100% Pima Cotton
Weight: DK / Light Worsted
Yardage: 205 yards (185 meters) per 100g skein
Gauge: 18–22 stitches = 4 inches

Care & Sizing Tip: For the best fit, we suggest knitting a gauge swatch and washing or blocking it first. Oh, yes, of course you would do that without me suggesting, right? *wink* The thing to keep in mind, like most natural cottons, is that a bit of 'settling' or minor shrinkage (about 3–5%) might happen after the first wash. To keep your lovely garment looking its best, always dry it flat and steer clear of hanging it while damp. Happy knitting!

Fast shipping and just as described. This yarn is slated for a little tank top I’ll make for this summer. Thanks very much.

Just entered a review for the other skein of yarn I bought from this store. Would suggest reading if you are considering buying.

Response from Kelly

Thank you for your feedback. As mentioned in our response to your other review, hand-dyed yarns from Malabrigo can naturally have unique color variations due to the hand dyeing process. We appreciate your comments and encourage all customers to keep these unique characteristics in mind when purchasing hand-dyed items.

Yarn is very soft and appears that it will be easy to work with. The yarn has different colors compared to those presented in the images. Was expecting the Humahuaca to have purple and white (as in listing), but it had much stronger pink and yellow colors that were not in the listing. Fall was closer to the listing photos, but was significantly different from the photo of the item. Much fewer blue or yellow tones. For both of these yarns they are not within the range of difference I would expect from hand dying yarn. I will not be buying from this store in future.

Response from Kelly

We appreciate your review. Hand-dyed yarns like Malabrigo are inherently unique; while photos show the overall colorway, Malabrigo's hand-dyeing process creates beautiful, natural variations where colors blend differently on each skein. These expected differences are part of their charm, not a defect. We're sorry the color variations were more than you expected. Custom dyeing may be a better option for those desiring a specific color distribution.
