Alpaca Heather 50g Dyed
The beauty of undyed, naturally-colored alpaca and wool combine into a heathery sport-weight yarn. When these 3 undyed colors (put up in 100g hanks) are then overdyed with Manos's kettle-dyed semi-solid colors, the results are rich, beautiful colors (put up in 50g hanks).

Impact
The Manos Cooperatives were founded in 1968, begun by five women whose goal was to develop economic opportunities for women in a country where there were, and are still, few opportunities for work.
With each purchased skein of Manos del Uruguay yarn, you help a woman to support her family. Each skein is signed, so you will know who made your yarn and from which village it came. You support the hand-crafted rather than mass-produced, and contribute to an economy where the workers control the means of production.
