This DK-weight is your go-to cotton/ hemp yarn for sturdy eco-friendly projects of every sort, ranging from comfortable summer tops to useful market bags. Hemp, like linen, is a bast fiber, part of the physical structure of the hemp plant. Bast fibers are known for their strength and durability while becoming softer with every wash. 41% Cotton / 34% Hemp / 25% ModalDK Weight153 yards / 50g Recommended knitting needle size US3-5 (3.25-3.75 mm), crochet hook size US E4-7 (3.5-4.5 mm).
