Malabrigo Rios Pearl 036 is a captivating blend of soft pearl gray that you reach for when you don't want ordinary. This enchanting yarn reveals a dynamic interplay of silvery and smoky tones, crafting a sophisticated neutral that is anything but plain. The subtle variations in color add depth and intrigue, making it an ideal choice for projects where elegance is key. Its understated beauty ensures that your stitches will shine, creating pieces that are not only wonderfully wearable but also truly eye-catching. Whether you're creating a cozy accessory or a striking garment, this yarn is beautiful.
Pearl is especially handsome in projects where texture deserves some attention. Cables, ribbing, seed stitch, and textured crochet stand out beautifully against the quiet gray background, while simple stitches let the yarn's subtle tonal changes do the work. Use it for a classic sweater or cardigan, a cozy scarf or cowl, or a hat that effortlessly goes with everything you own.
Spun from 100% superwash merino wool, Malabrigo Rios is a smooth, plump 4-ply worsted weight yarn known for its softness, beautiful stitch definition, and everyday versatility. It's substantial enough for hardworking accessories and blankets while remaining soft enough for garments and projects worn close to the skin.
And Pearl plays exceptionally well with color. Pair this silvery neutral with jewel tones for crisp contrast, soften it with creams and other neutrals, or let it anchor a colorful stranded or striped project. Of course, there's absolutely nothing wrong with using Pearl all by itself. Some colors don't need a supporting cast.

A note about Malabrigo: Part of the charm of Malabrigo yarn is its beautiful variation. Hanks may vary within a dye lot, so we recommend purchasing enough yarn for your entire project at one time. When working with more than one hank, alternating hanks every few rows will help those variations mingle beautifully throughout your project.
