Malabrigo Susurro is a warm weather favorite that blends softness, breathability, and a gentle texture into something truly special. Made from a thoughtful mix of mulberry silk, merino wool, and linen, this lightweight yarn offers the best of all three fibers. Silk for sheen, merino for softness, and linen for strength and structure.

The result is a fabric with an airy feel and a subtle, lived in texture that only gets better with wear. The linen adds a slight crispness on the skein, but softens beautifully after washing, while the silk gives a soft glow that enhances Malabrigo’s signature hand dyed colorways.

'Riti' means ice in Quechua. This yarn pays homage to the the jagged high peaks and sparkling glacial lakes of Patagonia. The wool of Riti Light has traveled through the landscapes of Peru, Argentina, and Chile, gaining the rich history and culture from each country.

When worked up, Riti Light delivers wonderful stitch definition and blooms beautifully just like its predecessor. The non-superwash finish of this yarn means it holds its shape very well, while remaining soft and smooth, perfect for any garment you won’t want to take your hands off of!

With a springy nature and a smooth texture, this yarn is perfect for knitted items worked in stockinette, cables, and lacework. Made from 100% U.S. Cormo wool, the resulting fabric is ideal for everyday garments and accessories. Initially bred from Australian Merino, Lincoln, and Superfine Saxon Merino sheep, the Cormo sheep produces a soft white yarn. North Bay Fiber's hand dyeing techniques result in vivid, bright, colorful solids. 

NOTE: Please consider that due to this yarn’s springy texture, when you substitute Elemental for another yarn in a pattern, you may wish to purchase approximately 20% more yarn than needed to ensure you will have a sufficient amount. This yarn has bounce!

The hardy sheep that bring us this remarkable wool roam freely on the grassland of the Tibetan Plateau at an altitude of over 4000 mt. Out of deep respect for animal welfare, nomads shear the sheep by hand in the traditional way that has been used for centuries, collecting the fiber following the natural life rhythms of the animals and the people who raise them. Tibetan sheep are a very strong breed that have adapted to the rough environmental conditions of the Himalayan plateau.

The herd that produces fiber for mYak Tibetan Cloud comes from a poorer area of Tibet, intentionally chosen to bring a better income to these communities. mYak aims to give this thousand of years old nomadic lifestyle an opportunity to thrive and prosper in uncertain modern times. The fiber is spun and dyed in Biella, at the foothills of the Italian Alps, the cradle of most ancient and prestigious Italian textile excellence.
