Manos del Uruguay Hornero from the Cardo Collection is a stunning yet simple hat and mitten set. These accessories take a simple stripe sequence and reverse it halfway up a hat and mittens. The dynamic color play is the focal point of the set, and shaping is minimal. Manos del Uruguay Cardo is wonderfully squishable bulky weight yarn spun from Uruguayan Carindale wool. This yarn comes in beautiful hand-dyed semi-solid colors, and its round structure will create crisp stitch definitions in a wide range of texture, cable, and colorwork patterns.
