Malabrigo names most of their yarns in Spanish (their native language in Uruguay) and many of them with terms referring to their thickness. Rasta in Spanish means “dreadlock”, and is also how we refer in Spanish to a very thick cord, like our yarn. A lightly-fulled single-ply yarn of magnum proportions!
Whip out a super-cozy accessory in just hours with this super-sized delight of a yarn. Our premium Uruguayan merino is just as soft as ever, and Rasta comes in a range of our unique “watercolor multi” colorways as well as a rainbow of semi-solid basics. Unbelievably squishy, this is the yarn to turn to when you want the ultimate in warmth (or the ultimate in speed!)

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. In the tagged (*) colors, the skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.
