Around the shop we think of Manos del Uruguay's Alegria as the platonic ideal of sock yarns. Achieving the perfect balance between an elastic fiber and an elastic spin, it's the best around for toe-up or top-down.
But of course, it's not just for your feet – this delightfully bouncy fingering-weight yarn works delightfully in vintage sweaters and finely crocheted lace housewares. We used this yarn to make our Ribbed Balaclava No. 1! Buy two skeins of this yarn and get the pattern for free (automatically discounted when added to your cart).
NOTE: If a color is labeled "superpool" that means it is self striping!
Yarn Weight: Fingering / Sock / Super Fine / Weight 1
Average Gauge: 7 – 8 stitches per inch on US 1 – 3 / 2.25 – 3 mm needles in stockinette stitch
Recommended Needles: 2.25 - 3 mm / US 1 - 3
Ply: 3 ply
Dye: This yarn is hand-dyed, color can vary from photos and other skeins. If you order more than one skein of the same color, we will send you skeins of the same dye lot.
Washing Instructions:Machine washable, though hand washing and laying flat to dry is recommended for longevity. Machine washing & laying flat to dry is a good compromise!
I've used a couple of Manos de Uruguay products, and they're literally a dream to work with. I'm knitting double for the first time, and this yarn is making it as easy as it possibly could be. The end product is sooo soft Ave confortable. Very highly recommend!
