Manos del Uruguay is a special brand of hand spun & dyed artisan yarns that supports rural Uruguayan women.  Manos is a non-profit organization that was founded to give women jobs, allowing them to be independent & support their families while being able to live in their home villages. 

 Silky soft with a gorgeous halo, Cabrito is a blend of kid mohair & nylon for strength & durability.  Be inspired for your next project by the array of variegated & tonal colorways.  Knit by itself for a gossamer light fabric or add to your favorite yarn to add a soft halo & depth of color.

Artisan hand-dyed yarns have natural color variations from skein to skein. Our team will do their best to choose the best matching skeins for your order. Here are some tips to get the best results when knitting with hand-dyed yarns:

  • Purchase enough yarn for your entire project
  • Alternate skeins by knitting two rows from one skein, then two rows from another skein. This will help to blend color differences.
