Malabrigo Susurro

Malabrigo Susurro DK/Sport yarn has a fabulous fiber content! Malabrigo Susurro DK/sport yarn is 50% Mulberry silk, 25% Merino, and 25% Linen wound as a single ply into a DK/Sport weight. The 25% Merino adds the softness and durability of wool. The 50% Mulberry Silk adds a beautiful shine and silky touch to the yarn. The 25% linen gives many of the colorways a tweed effect. Don't be put off by the linen content. This yarn is deliciously soft to touch and will only get softer with every wash.

This breezy Malbrigo Susurro DK/sport yarn is soft and light, making it the ultimate summer yarn. Susurro is great for Shawls, scarves, accessories, lace, textured stitches, cables, and lightweight garments.

You can find wonderful patterns for this yarn by taking a look here on Ravelry. The most stunning I have found is the Macrophylla - by Mia Rinde. Susurro yarn in colorway makes this a stunning summer shawl. For pattern particulars, visit the pattern page here on Ravelry, I can't wait to get this one on my needles!!

Like all hand dyed yarns, each skein of Malbrigo Susurro DK/sport yarn is slightly different. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project. Different lots can vary enough to make a difference in your color distribution.
