Malabrigo Seis Cabos – 6-Ply Merino Worsted Yarn
Seis Cabos means "six strands" in Spanish — and that six-ply construction is exactly what makes this yarn so special. Malabrigo's Seis Cabos is a light worsted weight yarn spun from 100% merino wool, delivering the exceptional stitch definition and structural integrity that only a well-constructed plied yarn can offer. Pair that with Malabrigo's legendary hand-dyed colorways and you have a yarn that's as beautiful to look at as it is to knit.
Whether you're working cables, colorwork, or a classic stockinette sweater, Seis Cabos gives you crisp, clean stitches and a fabric with beautiful drape and body.

All the Details
About the Yarn
Meaning “six plies” in Spanish, Seis Cabos is meticulously crafted by tightly twisting each one of its plies. This process creates a unique texture and offers greater strength and resilience to the yarn, ensuring every creation stands the test of time. Its one-of-a-kind construction not only guarantees great stitch definition but also provides a lovely drape to every project.
The Benefits
Seis Cabos has a tight twist, eliminating the "growth" you see in some merinos. It has more structure, making it an excellent yarn for sweaters.
