My Experience
Where I got it: Malabrigo sent me this skein to promote their new colours of Rasta
Needles I used: Addi US 15/10 mm
Blocked Gauge I got: 9.5 sts/15 rows = 4"/10 cm
My Thoughts: Rasta is such a fun yarn. The stitches are giant and pillowy and incredibly soft. And the new pastel colours are really dreamy! The fabric is really thick, which makes projects super quick.
What I might design with it: I used a really intense orange colour of Rasta to design my Sentiment shawl, one of my all-time best-sellers. I’m also contemplating a big, slouchy hat.
Where you can get some: Lot’s of LYS’s carry Malabrigo yarns, so check there first. I know you can also get it at Webs.
