Mallo Cotton Slub Weaving Yarn ~ Denim

Add to your order

Plain weave is anything but plain when woven in Mallo. The thick-and-thin nature of this cotton slub creates an elegant, delicate texture, even in the simplest of weaves. Slightly thicker than many weaving yarns, Mallo weaves up quickly on both rigid heddle and multi-shaft looms. Sturdy, soft, and absorbent, Mallo is perfect for towels, napkins, and washcloths as well as lightweight blankets, scarves, and shawls.  

  • 8oz cones / 750 yds
  • Size: similar to 3/2; 1,500 yds per pound.
  • Suggested EPI: 8-16 for rigid heddle and multi-shaft looms.
  • Care: Machine wash and dry.

My favorite cotton. Would love more colors!

I weave on a rigid heddle loom and find that Mallo makes really soft, absorbent kitchen towels. It's my favorite cotton to use for towels. I've also made several scarves and shawls with Mallo; either totally Mallo or combined with Duet or other yarns. The cotton is soft and drapes well. It's a joy to weave with as well.
My only wish is for more colors!

Mallo. Cotton Slub

I love using Mallo Cotton Slub for towels. It’s so easy to warp and doesn’t tangle. And the towels are so absorbent. Love weaving with it.

Mallo yarn

This was a wonderful yarn to weave with to give added texture to the kitchen towel. It helped make it thirsty to soak up the water.

Lovely texture

I used this yarn with Gist seed pod Pattern. Lovely soft nubby texture after wet finish. Nubby texture added a nice extra Dimension to my towels.
