A luminous warm-weather favorite from Malabrigo’s lineup, SUSURRO is a soft, airy DK/Sport-weight yarn that blends mulberry silk, merino wool, and linen into a beautifully balanced fabric. Spun as a single-ply and hand-dyed in rich Malabrigo colorways, Susurro offers elegant drape, a subtle sheen, and a unique texture that makes simple stitches look refined and special. It’s a gorgeous choice for lightweight garments, shawls, and accessories — especially when you want softness with a little structure from linen.

⌁ Texture & Feel
Soft, light, and breezy with a beautiful balance of silk sheen, merino softness, and linen texture. Susurro has a refined hand and lovely drape, while the linen adds subtle crispness and character to the finished fabric. The blend gives this yarn a luminous, elegant look that works beautifully in both simple and detailed stitches.
⌁ Color Notes
Malabrigo shades may vary skein-to-skein (part of the hand-dyed charm). For larger projects, it’s best to alternate skeins every few rows to blend natural dye-lot variation and keep color transitions soft and beautiful. For garment quantities, we recommend purchasing enough yarn at once for the best color consistency.
⚑ Why You’ll Love It
SUSURRO is the yarn you reach for when you want luxury + lightness. It’s soft enough for next-to-skin wear, breathable for warmer weather, and elegant enough to turn even simple stockinette or crochet stitches into a standout piece. The silk-merino-linen blend gives you softness, drape, and texture all in one yarn.

Please Note
Please Note
• HAND DYED: Each skein is hand-dyed, so variations in color may occur between batches. Be sure to purchase enough for your entire project, as this is a limited collection. We recommend alternating skeins every two rows for the most harmonious color blend.
• Once knit, it should be washed to reveal its true softness. This yarn is perfect for both hand and machine knitting, highly recommended for creating premium-quality knitwear.
• Colors are photographed in natural lighting but may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings. I recommend zooming in on each photo to appreciate the beauty and texture of the yarn.
