Dye & Color Nature
Like most Malabrigo lines, Caprino is hand-dyed in small batches. Because it does not use traditional factory dye lots, colors can vary slightly from skein to skein. To prevent color pooling or harsh lines in larger sections of fabric, it is highly recommended to purchase enough yarn for your full project at once and alternate rows from two different skeins.
