Malabrigo names most of their yarns in Spanish (the native language in Uruguay) and many of them with terms referring to their thickness Rasta are examples of this.
Rasta in Spanish means “dreadlock”, and is also how to describe in Spanish a very thick cord. 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. The premium Uruguayan merino is just as soft as ever, and unbelievably squishy, this is the yarn to turn to when you want the ultimate in warmth (or the ultimate in speed!)
