I made this scarf for my friend Karyn. I used mostly greys for this one, a light grey cable wool and a blue/ grey wool which I dyed myself. The red wool I used as an accent colour is a strong single hand dyed in Uruguay, I picked this lovely shade up at The Loop here in Halifax.
I love Manos del Uruguay wool, it is a single but it’s strong and the colours are always beautiful. The thread varies in thickness a bit and has a really homespun feel to it. This wool is made by a cooperative of craftswomen which help each other keep making a living from their work and allows them to stay in their home towns. I recommend taking a look at the lovely shades they have available.
