Because the yarn is chunky, it literally flies off you needles!  Great for Christmas time when your projects need to be completed by the time you have to play Santa Claus.

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.  Malabrigo is kettle dyed and sometimes the skeins may vary one from to 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.
