Some Talking Points:
• Manos yarns are produced by skilled artisans in cooperatives located throughout Uruguay.
• Each skein of yarn purchased helps a woman in Uruguay to support her family.
• Bonus points for GREAT photography!
• Each skein is signed by the artisan so that you know who made your yarn and which village it came from.
