Marla is created by plying two strands of yarn that have been dyed separately together. The result is a stunning, marled fabric where the color is even & uniformly distributed. Each colorway has a gorgeous depth of saturated color that knits into unique cardigans, pullovers, hats, cowls & other accessories. Spun with 100% superwash Merino wool, the DK weight yarn has a pleasing soft, textural hand. Manos del Uruguay is a special brand of hand dyed artisan yarns that supports rural Uruguayan women.
