Alegria is a beautifully springy wool and nylon blend in the gorgeous hand-painted colourways for which Manos del Uruguay is famous. Please note that this is a variegated yarn with short sections of each colour.

From the manufacturer:

"Alegría means "joy" in Spanish, and that's just what this hand-painted yarn is, a true color celebration!

Easy-care with a rich, cushy hand, Alegria is perfect for socks, baby gear, or fun accessories.

We recommend buying enough yarn to complete a project. If there is great difference between skeins, we recommend knitting two rows from one skein and two from another skein to give an overall blended effect."

Made in Uruguay.
