Hemp has a rich history as a fiber, food, and more all over the word, but we think it really shines in our Hempshaugh yarn! Named after an English town known in the past for producing hemp products, this yarn is a blend of soft, comfortable merino wool, luxurious silk, and sturdy, breathable hemp. This blend is perfect for summer garments and accessories that look refined and wear comfortably in hot, humid weather. The fabric it creates has beautiful drape and light hand, but best of all stays dry and breathable all day long.
