Malabrigo Yarn’s Chunky is like a cloud in a yarn. Combined with vibrant, variegated colors and simple cables, this yarn makes for one juicy hat. Uva, or grape in Spanish, is named for this Malabrigo colorway and features an offset cable pattern that knits up quickly and looks more complicated than it is. Uva is a great hat for someone just starting out with cables or who wants to practice cabling without a cable needle.
