Hemp Washcloth

So it's hot outside and you don't feel like working on a huge project or touching that ball of wool.

This hemp washcloth is a great little project perfect for the dog days of summer. It uses allhemp6 by Hemp For Knitting and it's softer than you might think. Knitting with hemp is similar to flax, and hemp can be substituted for flax in patterns. This washcloth is quick and easy to knit and makes a wonderful gift. The pattern is available for free in our store with the purchase of yarn.
