Summarized by AI
I purchased this yarn as a gift. I chose 416 Indiecita, lime, blue, and purple hues. It seems very soft, with beautiful colours that will suit the recipient when she has knitted it up. The knitter I purchased this Malabrigo Arroyo yarn for likes a variety of yarn weights to knit up. I decided this was such a good colour selection that the weight of the yarn would not matter. I know they will be appreciated.
Lovely to knit. The only issue with Malabrigo is that it stretches.
The yarn is very soft and perfect for the sweater I am making. The colors are rich and saturated, making a vivid statement. Winding the hanks was easy, some yarns are knotty and twisted, this brand never is.
This yarn is extremely soft and the colors are stunning. It creates a fabric with a beautiful drape. It’s my favorite yarn and I’ve purchased multiple times- for knit and crochet. 10 out of 10!
This yarn tops everything that I have ever knitted, and that is a lot of knitting! It feels beautiful to the touch but also has great stitch definition. Colour variation also makes it interesting to knit. I just love it!
Gorgeous quality yarn. I loved knitting with this. Also the colours were lovely I bought the grey one and the finished hat felt so smooth and good quality a pleasure to knit with
The yarn is lovely, but it is delivered in skeins. It took me ages to wind it into balls, and even with the help of my husband, it was tricky to stop it tangling. I would not buy this yarn again because of this. It knitted up very well. I am making a cardigan.
I always love knitting with Malabrigo yarns. It knits up beautifully, and the yarn doesn’t unravel as I knit like some yarns do.
Beautiful colors!! Even brighter in person, I love to knit with Malabrigo Yarn, it is soft and great quality. I bought Malabrigo Arroyo this time.
gorgeous, didn't need to alternate skeins. Lovely and soft, great stitch definition. True that it's a light DK but works beautifully with a normal DK CC if you're doing colourwork.
