Cardo Collection

The Cardo Collection designed by the Fairmount Fibers team celebrates the newest yarn from Manos del Uruguay: Cardo! Cardo is a crisp, resilient bulky-weight yarn made of 100% Corriedale wool in a 4-ply construction.

The Tinamou pullover takes advantage of Cardo's crisp stitch definition for a yoke composed of easy patterns that yield graphic impact. Worked from the top down, both body and sleeve length are easily customizable to make this your favorite walk-in-the-woods sweater.
