Manos del Uruguay Fino is a soft, shiny single-ply fingering weight yarn in exquisite hand-dyed colors. The luxurious blend of Merino and silk gives Fino a soft hand and gorgeous drape.

Hand-dyed yarns have subtle variations in colors that are natural and may vary from skein to skein. There may be differences between pictures shown and the yarn you receive. To ensure the best results for your project:

Manos del Uruguay Fino is my go to yarn for knitting the Williamsburg Cowl by Knitty McPurly. The fabric it creates is super dreamy, and the generous 490 yards is the perfect amount of yarn. I’m currently working with the Silhouette colorway, and it’s a lovely mix of light grey and slate blue that will go with quite a bit in my wardrobe.
Lovely yarn. The dye turns my fingers blue however.
Mania sel Uruguay Fino is my go to yarn to knit up the Williamsburg Cowl by Knitty McPurly. It is the perfect amount of yardage and creates a soft cowl with wonderful stitch definition even though it’s a single ply yarn. The color ways are rich and have such a depth to them, and the yarn is a joy to knit with!
Manos del Uruguay Fino is my go to yarn for knitting the Williamsburg Cowl by Knitty McPurly. The yardage is perfect; the colorways are rich and have amazing depth, and the stitch definition is super great for a single ply yarn.
This yarn has a wonderful color, feel, and is working up into a very lightweight article!
Lovely yarn, really pleasant to work with. Making a sweater--not enough done yet to show in a photo.
Beautiful in color and feel. Cant wait to purchase more and it’s so easy with Webs online and the discounts!
Lovely yarn to work with. Super soft and smooth with a hint of silk sheen. Wish there are more shades to choose from.
I returned the yarn because the colors were quite subdued. I don't believe that the image posted online was misleading, really, but it is so very difficult to give an overall impression with a close up image.
