Rubí Marabú: The intriguing fiber that transforms your projects

Can you imagine transforming your projects with a yarn unlike any other? With Rubí Marabú from Lanas Rubí, you'll discover a durable and intriguing fiber, ideal for adding originality to your creations.

At Lanas Rubí, we present a yarn that stands out for its blend of 66% wool, 23% acrylic, and 11% polyester. This fiber combines the best of each material, offering a unique and creative result. It comes in a round ball of 50 grams and 40 meters, perfect for projects with a distinct style full of personality.

A durable fiber that is so much more

Rubí Marabú stands out for its special texture. Its coiled strand blends different fibers and furry areas, adding a very original touch of fantasy. Although it may seem daring at first glance, its durable fiber ensures a long-lasting and high-quality finished product, ideal for worry-free use and enjoyment.

This unique texture allows it to look spectacular even with basic stitches like stockinette or rib stitch. You'll achieve a distinct and casual effect, perfect for those seeking beautiful results without complications.

Intriguing fiber for unique details

If you're passionate about experimenting and adding a personal and creative touch to your projects, Rubí Marabú is the ideal choice. Its intriguing fiber is perfect for knitting stylish accessories like scarves, hats, cowls, or bags. It's also excellent for creating original details in your projects, such as cuffs, hoods, or decorative strips.

At Lanas Rubí, we love for you to play with your creativity and get the most out of each ball. You can mix it with other qualities, experiment with different needle sizes, or combine it with other yarns to create surprising effects. Imagine a jacket knitted with Rubí Clásica and Rubí Marabú details on the cuffs or hood, achieving a different and casual look that won't go unnoticed.

Ideal for daring and creative knitters

Thanks to its thickness and durable fiber (bulky/chunky), Rubí Marabú is perfect for beginner knitters looking for quick results. At the same time, its texture invites innovation and adding a personal touch to every project. You can work with needles from 5 to 7 mm or a crochet hook of 4 mm to experiment with surprising effects.

Useful tip: if the furry fantasy appears on the wrong side of the work, use your fingers to pull the fur through the fabric to the right side of the work so it is visible. If you also want to enhance its messy effect, use a soft-bristled comb to achieve it.

Care for your projects and enjoy their personality

• Hand wash or machine wash on delicate cycles, always with cold water and without strong spinning.
• Do not iron or tumble dry to preserve its texture and color.
• Store folded in protective bags to prevent moisture and dust.

Remember that Rubí Marabú yields less than other yarns due to its yardage. We recommend using it for small projects like hats, cowls, or scarves, or for original details in larger garments.

Tips for getting the most out of it

• Play with colors: available in five bicolor shades (from 101 to 105).
• Dare to mix: combine it with Rubí Clásica for surprising details.
• Experiment with thicknesses: use needles from 5 to 7 mm to enhance its special effect.
• Choose simple stitches: let the texture and color be the protagonists.
