Made For Mom
In the United States, Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May. Moms all around the world do so much and Fairmount Fibers is proud to bring you yarn made by women, to support women, in the cooperatives in Uruguay. In this blog post, we'd like to spotlight several customer projects from Ravelry that were made "for Mom".
JocelynS made a Nursing Shawl for her daughter, an expectant Mom, in Alegria. Jillannbal's Herbs and Honey Cowl was knit in her Mom's choice of Maxima. ThistleKnitter's Fussy Cuts for Fussy Mom is a beautiful combination of assorted Wool Clasica and Noro Kuryeon.
Mmiscevic's Lace Blanket Shawl in Maxima is a work of art, incorporating the name and adjectives that describe her Grandmother! Beckybecky used Lace in her Ethereal for Mom project, and cboncek's Mitts for Mom are knit in Silk Blend.
We would love to know what special items you have made for your Mom in Manos del Uruguay yarns. Please let us know here with a blog comment, a post on our Facebook page, or share your projects with our Ravelry group!
