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.
It's a light worsted yarn, comparable to a substantial DK weight. Pure merino wool with a high twist gives this yarn lots of structure and bounce with high elasticity to hold its shape.
Great for:
- Accessories
- Garments
- Baby and kids items
- Housewares
- Toys
- Cables and textured stitches
- Colorwork
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. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.
All of Malabrigo's yarns are mulesing-free.

Please note: Certain colors may bleed, especially dark colors and vibrant ones. Always make a test swatch and block it, if you’re concerned about color bleeding. To help reduce bleeding, block with cold water, use color catching sheets in the water, only use one color, or stay away from high-contrast colorwork.
