Malabrigo Caprino Yarn, Merino Cashmere Sport DK, Hand Dyed Pastel Multicolor, 50g 164 yds

Soft and dreamy, Malabrigo Caprino in colorway 875 Arapey brings a beloved Malabrigo palette to this exceptional merino-cashmere base for the first time — pastel pink, purple, blue, and yellow drifting together in that signature hand-dyed way that Malabrigo fans will recognize and love instantly. The colors blend and shift with effortless harmony, each tone melting quietly into the next with the kind of luminous softness that only hand dyeing can achieve.

At sport-to-DK weight, Caprino's blend of 80% superfine merino and 20% cashmere brings exceptional softness to every project this colorway touches. The semi-solid hand-dyed quality means the pastels move through the skein with natural variation and luminosity, giving finished fabric a gentle, watercolor quality that makes even simple stitch patterns feel special.

A note on hand-dyed yarn
Hand-dyed yarns have subtle color variations that are natural and part of their beauty — no two skeins are identical. For best results, buy enough yarn for your entire project at once, and alternate two rows from each skein as you knit to ensure an even, blended finish.
Care
Hand wash in cold water, lay flat to dry.
