Malabrigo Brisa
Meet Brisa, the newest addition to the Malabrigo family! Brisa means "breeze" in Spanish, and it's a fitting name for this beautifully soft, lightweight yarn.
A blend of 60% merino wool, 30% cupro, and 10% silk, Brisa combines the softness of merino with the silky feel, subtle sheen, and beautiful drape of cupro and silk. If you're not familiar with cupro, it's a fiber made from cotton byproducts that gives the finished fabric a lovely, fluid feel.
This sport/DK weight yarn is perfect for lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and tops that you'll want to wear again and again. Its three-ply construction provides lovely stitch definition, while Malabrigo's signature hand-dyed colors make even the simplest project something special.
With a generous 328 yards per skein, Brisa is definitely worth adding to your yarn stash. Of course, we think you'll have a hard time choosing just one color!
