#malabrigo rios

Finished my weekend project today before the clouds rolled in — waving rib, Malabrigo Rios in English Rose… it’s fun to combine different rib stitches and come up with something new.

Mission "knit my top for my birthday weekend" was a success! I had an amazing time out last night with friends, and everyone loved my top. Took about 3 days from start to finish. Used one skein of malabrigo rios in the color scorpio. Pattern is My Secret Little Crop from Jessie Maed Designs. I definitely wanna knit this pattern again sometime.

crowdsourcing project ideas: 3 skeins for knitting edition

hello! do you knit? do you like to give solicited recommendations? do YOU know what wearable to make with ~600yds of worsted malabrigo rios wool yarn?? then boy is this the post for you!!

i was gifted yarn, and i'd like to make one (1) item to fit a tall-ish adult person out of it. i briefly trawled ravelry about it, but nothing there is hugely sparking joy, so i thought i'd turn to this other corner of the internet instead!

i was thinking something poncho-y, or perhaps a shawl that could become a poncho-y thing (or i guess a wrap?? i've never made a wrap). my problem, again, is that i'm tall, and that i ONLY have these three hanks of very pretty yarn, so the 600yd limit is real. i'm not feeling ~scarf~ or ~hat~ or any combination thereof: i want one BIG wearable thing out of this.

i am willing to try patterns with lace elements to maximize my size per yardage (size more important than warmth; i love layers), but i'm absolutely not a Lace Knitter™. willing to try anything once! intermediate skill level currently (i tag things as "my knitting" so you can see what that means lol).

does anybody have favorite patterns for this sort of thing? general ideas? hit me with them, please!!

A dragon-scale dice bag as a Christmas gift for my sister! This turned out absolutely gorgeous- I’d had this pattern saved since before I could even crochet and was so excited that my skills were now up to the task. This yarn is beyond lovely- and you can’t see too well in the photo but the glittery inner lining makes it look magical when it shows through the scales.

Yarn: Malabrigo Rios (not sure of the shade), gold lining and accent is Rico Luxury Magic Mohair in gold- which seems hard to find; I’ve had it forever so it may be discontinued.
