Malabrigo Ultimate Sock | Old Rose

We’re thrilled to announce our collaboration with designer Lisa Hannes, bringing together her stunning patterns and a new custom colorway created just for this collection.

The result is Old Rose, a warm, dusky rose with soft brown undertones that perfectly captures the timeless elegance Lisa envisioned, along with three beautiful patterns that work in perfect harmony. 

Ultimate Sock takes our sock yarn and elevates it a level by adding 25% Nylon to the superwash merino that everyone already knows and loves. It is perfect to knit your lovely socks and make sure they will be resistant and durable at the same time.

Ultimate Sock is a 4-ply with 420 yards yarn and we are introducing it with 30 beautiful colors, including some of our classics, such as Aniversario, Frank Ochre and some exclusive new colors; Patrick, Gloria and Zinnia.

 Great for: Socks and garments with a lot of friction.

 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. 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. 

Skeins are hand dyed in small batches of 5 so color variance is normal (even from skein to skein) based on dye lot and monitor/device settings. May not appear exactly as shown.
