I love the colour and feel of this beautiful yarn and I'm hoping to knit the NYMPH shawl with it but I have to finish two other projects first so might not get the shawl until next year!

This Manos Del Uruguay silk blend yarn is beautiful, lustrous and soft. I purchased the colour Zenith and the colours are vibrant and stunning.

Gorgeous colours and feels sooo soft and silky. It also has a good length of yarn per 50 g ball.

I ordered this yarn as I am knitting a pattern that requires two strands of yarn to be knit together, one DK and the other in an Aran weight to make a slightly less than chunky longline vest. Manos was my choice because I needed the DK to be in black and their yarn is lovely and soft and has 30% silk for added sheen.

I love working with and wearing items made from this yarn. It is soft and warm. The patterns available for MDU's silk blend are great.
