MANOS is a non-profit social organization which, since 1968, has provided jobs for craftswomen living in Uruguay’s rural areas who own & run it.
MANOS’ commitment to the environment is reflected in the use of luxurious natural fibers such as pure wool, silk, alpaca, cashmere and cotton. The rational use of water and other resources as well as the avoidance of harmful chemicals during the dyeing process is enforced. read more…
