We all like fast, simple projects and that's especially true this time of year. Now the perfect time to explore Cardo, the bulky weight yarn from Manos del Uruguay.
It's spun from 100% Corriedale, a hardy breed of sheep very common to Uruguay. It's a plied, bulky weight yarn and gives you approx. 109 yards on a 100 gram skein.
| We have some pattern suggestions for Cardo including the free Pitanga Hat, shown here, as well as our own Kimono Style Vest shown below, a very simple cardigan vest that's as easy to knit as it is to wear. If you can knit and purl, you can make this vest! | |
|
Special Offer: Buy 5 skeins of Cardo, add the Kimono Vest to your cart, then Use code CARDOPATTERN at checkout and get the pattern for free!
Offer ends Friday, October 28 at 11:59 PM Pacific.
| |
The original yarn from the Artisians of Manos del Uruguay, Clasica is hand spun from Corriedale then hand dyed in all those beautiful colors for which they're known. | |
|
This fabulous hat is knit with just one skein of Clasica! You knit the cable band sideways, then pick up the stitches to finish off the top.
Pick your favorite color of Clasica and discover your new favorite hat!
