Did you know that there are more than thirty-five colorways that are named for a floral inspiration across the different bases of
Manos del Uruguay Yarns? In this blog post, we'd like to share projects and patterns made in four of these unique colorways: Wildflowers, Peony, Lilypad and Glicinas.
The
Signs of Spring cowl, by Lisa R. Myers, is a
free download from
Fairmount Fibers, and calls for two skeins of
Serena. Shown here in S8931 Wildflowers (left),
handmadebykoren's project in S2609 Peony (top), and
mathiri's project in S9095 Lilypad (bottom).
The Glicinas colorway of
Alegria is inspired by the Wisteria plant, you might recall from our
What's In a Name? post. Here are (clockwise from top left)
redfox-knits' Wisteria Wrap,
Brennee's Starshower,
wizbit13uk's Spring Geese, and
Tihiri's Betsy Cardigan.
We hope we have inspired you to indulge in a favorite floral colorway of
Manos Yarn for your next project! Are you using a floral colorway to create a floral motif, like this crochet pansy trim we spotted on
