Whether you're returning to the craft this fall, or have been knitting and crocheting all year long, Fall is prime time for selecting skeins of
Manos del Uruguay yarn for a fall or winter project. Let's get right to it!
Fealdan Shawl
The
Fealdan Shawl is a new free knitting pattern by Kate Groop that showcases a mini-skein set of
Manos del Uruguay Fino with an additional full-sized skein. The sample photographed above is knit in
Amethyst Earring and the
Clarissa mini-bundle. Additional free patterns that make the most of the Fino Mini-Skein Sets are available to download, just

Chunky Crochet Cowl & Crochet Sweaters
The
Chunky Crochet Cowl (top) is a free pattern from Kara Guzman of
Petals to Picots.
Manos del Uruguay Serpentina does all the work here; there are no fancy or complicated stitches, making this a great beginner project! Kristen TenDyke's
Herbal Tea Cardigan (bottom left) is included in the
October 2017 I Like Crochet. The sweater is worked top down, so you can try it on as your work progresses. Five to eight skeins of
Manos del Uruguay Clara are required, depending on size. The
Hondius Way Pullover (bottom right) is a unique hybrid of pullover and poncho. A tonal colorway of
Alegria showcases a beautiful crochet stitch pattern. Natasha Robarge's design is part of the
Fall 2017 Interweave Crochet issue.
Lundbye Scarf and Entwined Shawl
Little else says Fall like a handknit scarf or shawl to tuck in at your jacket collar or to warm your shoulders. The
Lundbye Scarf by Little Church Knits is a simple ribbed scarf with reversible cables. The sample for the
knit.wear Fall / Winter 2017 issue is knit in the Foil colorway of
Alegria, making it a great go-with-everything accessory. Susanna IC combined simple braided cables with a touch of openwork and a modern asymmetrical shape in the
Entwined Shawl. Three skeins of
Maxima in Cherrywood and the
Holiday 2017 Interweave Knits are all you need to get started on this ingenious shawl.
