This hemp twine is so special,
you'll want to put it on display
as well as use it! It is
predominantly 1mm thick,
ranging in parts up to 2mm
thick. The weight is between
60g to 70grams per hand
wound ball. Use it to knit or
crochet scrub cloths, hats,
handbags or placemats. As it
is mildew resistant and anti-
bacterial it is also perfect for
use in the garden, macrame,
belt-making and as pet leads
and leashes. I have even
seen a pattern for hand
crocheted hemp sandals.
Jewellers and beaders prefer
hemp as it is a strong, yet
flexible fibre. Hemp softens
with each wash, and lightens
in colour if left out in the sun.
I am guessing by the size of
the balls that there is around
300m length per ball........but
as each piece is hand crafted,
there will be differences in
length. Who is up for some
eco art?
