At your Local Yarn Shop, the new yarn this season is Cabrito, our new laceweight kid mohair blend. In Spanish, cabrito means a young goat, or kid, and is an appropriate name for this luxurious new yarn found in beautiful space-dyed colors, from soft and subtle to bright and bold. Use it by itself for a gossamer-light fabric, or pair it with any of the other Manos del Uruguay yarns to add a soft halo and additional warmth.
