Franca by Manos del Uruguay is a playful, hand-dyed single-ply yarn spun from 100% incredibly soft superwash merino. Its bold, expressive colourways and smooth texture make every stitch pop.
Hand dyed by women artisans in Manos del Uruguay cooperatives in the Uruguayan countryside, supporting fair trade practices and sustainable livelihoods.
Suggested uses: Super chunky yet surprisingly light, Franca is perfect for quick, satisfying projects like hats, cowls, scarves and statement accessories. Ideal when you want instant impact with minimal effort, it’s a yarn that turns simple knits into something special.
