About Madelinetosh A.S.A.P.

A.S.A.P. is a super bulky single-ply in 100% merino, hand-dyed in Madelinetosh colorways. Each 132 g skein holds 94 yards.

It's squishy and soft, and a single skein can turn into a hat in an evening. The single-ply construction gives it a plump, rounded look and shows off hand-dyed color in big, bold stitches.

It's for knitters who want quick results: a last-minute gift, a first hat for a new knitter, or a cozy cowl. It's also good for anyone who wants to see Madelinetosh color in an easy, fast project. For a similar super bulky with a slightly irregular texture, see Noventa.

Best for

  • Hats knit in one evening
  • Chunky cowls and scarves
  • Quick last-minute gifts
  • Beginner projects with big stitches
  • Chunky crochet hats and cowls

Working with it

The listed needles are US 13–17, at 2–2.5 stitches per inch. Big stitches show every change in tension, so keep an even rhythm. Single-ply yarns can bias and pill with friction, so simple patterns and ribbing work best. Join new skeins with a spit splice or a wet felted join to avoid bulky ends. Chunky circular needles or a long cable make hats easier to work in the round.

Care

The catalog doesn't say whether this merino is superwash. Hand wash is safest: cool water, gentle wool wash, no agitation, and dry flat. Avoid hot water and rubbing, which can felt untreated wool.
