From the Manos del Uruguay website: “Manos del Uruguay has a social aim and we are a Non for profit organization. We are organized in 12 cooperatives, each one is a workshop located in a small village of Uruguay’s countryside.
The artisans are the owners of the company and Manos ´ profits are shared among the cooperatives or re-invested in the organization. The cooperatives have strong bonds with the communities where they are inserted, having a positive impact in society and families is very important for us.”

I’ve made two Fino Shadow shawls with this fantastic yarn and can’t wait to make a third. The colours are perfect and it is so soft and luxurious.
