Love the colors for crochet projects

I do a lot of playing around with crochet, and I just love Malabrigo colours. I think it’s a worsted weight. I think it’s going to be a runner for the bottom of the bed maybe.

Malabrigo is one of my favorite yarns to use. From Rios to sock weight, I love all of it. It is very soft and luxurious. It is my go-to yarn for those very special gifts.

In addition, the skeins do not have a dye lot indicated, and the color is so far from...
