Hemp yarns have been used
for centuries in Nepal. The
yarns are woven, crocheted,
and knitted into many
different types of items--
everything from clothing and
ceremonial accessories to
fishing nets and bags. Our
yarns are as completely
natural, made without the use
of chemicals or machines.
The plants are found naturally
in the wild grown (hemp) in
remote mountainous areas.
The fibers are processed and
spun by hand. The resulting
yarn has a natural and rustic
appeal. Both yarns have a
texture similar to natural linen
and like linen will soften with
wear. Nettle is a natural moth
repellent and is often used in
Nepal for backing wool
carpets. Use as a carry along
yarn with Recycled Silk. Knit
or crochet bags and face
clothes.
