Mecha means single ply in Uruguayan Spanish. This yarn is similar to Malabrigo's popular and classic Worsted single ply yarn, but heavier and superwash!

Yep, you heard us right, a rare single-ply superwash yarn! Malabrigo's superwash merino takes color in the most vivid, rich way, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the multi-layered hues of Mecha! Soft as always, Mecha has a slight thick-and-thin texture, a fantastic loft, and is the perfect size for quick but not-too-heavy projects.

Mecha is great for accessories, garments, baby and kids items, cables, textured stitches, and more!

Like all Malabrigo yarns, Mecha is kettle-dyed in small batches by artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation and beauty. Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins vary from bag to bag. Particularly for variegated colors, skeins will vary from one to the next even within the same bag and will vary, sometimes substantially, from what is pictured. Twisted staff will do our best to fill your order with skeins from the same dye lot that visually match.

To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.

While colors shown are accurate to the best of our ability, computer monitors and dye lots both vary so the skeins you receive may differ from what is shown.
