Spring 2021 Elizabeth Smith Collection
Pulling inspiration from a modern earth-tone palette, this Spring collection from Elizabeth Smith uses clean, simple lines and floral eyelet details to create light, transitional layers that are as easy to knit as they are to wear. Top-down or bottom-up, garment or accessory, Elizabeth's thoughtfully crafted collection for Manos del Uruguay is sure to have something that will please!

Forsythia uses asymmetrical visual details and an interesting hi/low split hem construction to give the classic poncho a modern twist. The Silk Blend yarn provides not only softness and sheen, but also a pretty stitch definition that is showcased in the asymmetrical eyelets. The simple, seamless construction is paired with short-row-shaped shoulders for a flattering fit that creates a garment that can be worn either with more ease for a poncho-like fit, or less ease for a more sweater-vest fit.

They arrived in excellent shape and were everything I hoped they would be ! ! !
Mysteries are exciting - and that's what this shopping experience was.
Beautiful color. Great feel. I can't wait to start knitting.
Great looking yarn. Surprising, vibrant color. Thanks.
I love Serena it is a perfect year round yarn. The drape is always beautiful and it has great stitch definition. Not to mention that every color produced by Manos is magic. The staff at Fairmount Fibers is always kind and amazing! Thanks so much for my recent order! Christy Pyles
The pattern is well written, the yarn is a dream to knit with and I love the color
Very nice and its easy to follow the pattern, I'm in need of a new scarf, so for a change I'm making it for me.
I love the inventory of merchandise that's available to order online and also patterns too.
The patterns look lovely, and they'll keep me busy while I'm recovering from my surgery. Thank you again.
I’ve made it twice. It’s lovely. The yarn is dreamy. Thank you for coordinating 5 colors as a kit.
I actually had the free pattern delivered, and will definitely try more of the patterns. It was a very easy process, thank you.
