Spring 2025 Collection: This.Bird.Knits x Manos del Uruguay

Our collection with Annie Haas of This.Bird.Knits focuses on her love of stitch texture and feminine silhouettes. She explores the possibilities of one openwork stitch over several pieces, in different arrangements and at different scales. See how it brings different moods - depending on which Manos yarn is used - that can be mixed and matched for your own style!

Panels of simple stitches let the loft and drape of Alpaca Heather, our sportweight alpaca-and-wool yarn, shine in a classic top-down triangle.
