**We liked Mecha so much, we hit it with a shrink ray! Mechita is a fingering-weight version of our beautifully-dyed single-ply superwash yarn. Just as soft and rich as the original, but great for lighter projects! Machine washable, and wonderfully colorful, Mechita is a great yarn for accessories and garments. Available in Malabrigo's traditional colors, as well as beautiful speckled varieties, Mechita is perfect for any project.
