The Yésica Collection is a full Fall / Winter handmade wardrobe, exploring the different weights and fibers of Manos del Uruguay yarns! Intended to be mixed and matched, they can be worn together to create different looks and play with the stunning color palette from Manos.

\\\\///////

The Yésica Wrap is a parade of textures and fades with Fino and Cabrito, a mohair yarn. As it is knit in garter stitch from the center out, it is not only an interesting construction but a reversible one as well!
