Malabrigo Texture Along

Malabrigo Texture-Along

 

When:          
August 14-September 11, 2025

What:
In honor of the huge shipment of Malabrigo Rios and Silkpaca, I decided to run a KAL featuring these two yummy yarns. We chose 5 top-down sweaters that all have different textural elements. Choose from Funfetti Raglan, Kanapu, Killer Queen Pullover, Melting Pot DK Sweater, or sweater_colibri.

Yarn:            
My recommendation for sweater_colibri is two strands of Silkpaca with a strand of Aerial, Prairie, or Halo. Kanapu will be great with either two strands of Silkpaca or one strand of Silkpaca held with a strand of Aerial, Prairie, or Halo. Funfetti Raglan, Killer Queen Pullover, or Melting Pot DK Sweater will all be perfect with Rios.                   

Cost:            
This KAL is free to participate in, but you must purchase your yarn from us specifically for this KAL in order to join.

Meetings:     
We will meet three times for us to help you with any questions or problems you may be having! All meetings are from 4p-6p:
   Thu, August 14 cast on party
   Thu, August 28
   Thu, September 11

We will post any tips we come across in our Facebook Group “Threadbender Yarn Shop –Alongs”. And we encourage everyone to share pictures and questions.
