This yarn has a beautiful sheen and incredible depth of colour. The new Fino range is the same yarn as the popular Manos Silk Blend but in a 4ply weight perfect for lace shawls and light garments. The 100g hanks have 450m in them, plenty for a good sized shawl. This is a hand-dyed product so the usual caveats about buying enough to finish your project and alternating two hanks while you knit to minimise the variations in colour apply. This yarn was hand dyed in Uruguay by a women's co-operative. Each hank is signed by the women who made it.
