Mallo Cotton Slub Weaving Yarn ~ Natural

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. 
  • Made in the USA. Learn more about our sourcing here.

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.

Beautiful color, beautiful yarn

This was my first project with Mallo. I found it very easy to work with and expect to use it again. I paired “fir” with natural in a couple of color-and-weave designs on my rigid heddle loom (12.5-dent reed). The thick-and-thin nature of the yarn adds a pleasing irregularity to the geometric designs, and gives the towels a wonderful texture.

Perfect Choice

I fell for the Windowpane Blanket pattern right away and used Mallo Cotton Slub for a delightful baby blanket. I'd describe Mallo Cotton Slub as sturdy, but delicate. I look forward to other Mallo projects on my Ashford 24" RHL.

An extra bath mat - one more cone!

This is a review for an extra cone I purchased to complete the GIST bath mat EXTRA mat. I made the mat on a 8-shaft jack loom because I don’t have a rigid heddle wide enough. Worked wonderfully. Love it.
