![[KnitFreedom] Video Tour Of The Malabrigo Yarns Factory in Montevideo, Uruguay

Last week I fulfilled a dream that seemed almost impossible — I visited the Malabrigo Yarn factory in Montevideo, Uruguay.
I interviewed Malabrigo owner Antonio for almost four hours and recorded everything, as he told me details, secret histories, and funny stories behind the yarns, the names, the colors, and the sheep.
Come share in my dream come true — read the blog post here:
