Dos Tierras by Malabrigo
Experience the luxurious softness and stunning color of Malabrigo Dos Tierras Yarn—a beautifully balanced blend of 50% baby alpaca and 50% merino wool. Named “Dos Tierras,” or “two lands,” this yarn brings together the best fibers from Peru and Uruguay, creating a perfectly soft, smooth, and versatile DK-weight yarn that’s ideal for your most cherished projects.
Luxurious Fiber & Feel
The combination of baby alpaca and merino wool gives Dos Tierras its signature texture—plush, warm, and silky with just the right amount of drape. It’s a dream to knit or crochet with, producing fabric that feels gentle against the skin and has excellent stitch definition for cables, lace, and colorwork alike.
Hand-Dyed Beauty
Each skein of Malabrigo Dos Tierras is hand-dyed in small batches, resulting in rich, tonal colorways that are truly one-of-a-kind. From earthy neutrals to vibrant jewel tones, every shade carries Malabrigo’s signature depth and artistry. The colors are saturated yet soft, perfect for creating timeless pieces that stand out for their beauty and craftsmanship.
A Farm Favorite
Here at Riverview Alpaca Co, we absolutely love this yarn. It perfectly captures what we value most—natural fibers, rich texture, and exceptional quality. The softness of the alpaca paired with the bounce of merino makes it a joy to work with, and we’re so happy to be able to stock it on the farm for fellow makers who appreciate beautiful yarn as much as we do.
Perfect Pairing with the Doodle Knit Directory
Dos Tierras is also a wonderful companion to the Doodle Knit Directory patterns from Pacific Knit Co. Its smooth DK weight and balanced texture make it ideal for the intricate colorwork and creative combinations featured in the Doodle patterns. The wide color palette lets you mix and match shades that bring your designs to life—whether you’re knitting a cozy hat, a patterned cowl, or a full Doodle sweater.
