Experience the raw beauty and ecological elegance of Hemp 100, a premium yarn crafted from 100% pure hemp fiber.
Pure Sustainability: Hemp is one of the most eco-friendly fibers in the world, requiring minimal water and zero pesticides. By choosing Hemp 100, you are making a conscious choice for the planet.
Transforms Over Time: While the yarn has a firm and robust structure at first (similar to linen), it possesses the fascinating quality of softening with every wash and wear, becoming incredibly fluid and comfortable against the skin.
Thermal Comfort: Hemp is an excellent natural insulator. It is highly breathable, wicks away moisture, and keeps you cool during the hottest summer days.
Extreme Durability: Hemp fibers are among the strongest natural fibers known. Your projects will not sag or degrade, maintaining their shape and beauty for years to come.
Washing: Wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a mild detergent, preferably eco-friendly or specifically designed for natural fibers.
Drying: We recommend flat drying (on a horizontal surface), away from direct sunlight.
Ironing: For a very smooth and fluid look, you can iron the item while it is still slightly damp, using the cotton/linen setting on your iron.
The Secret of Hemp: Don’t be alarmed if your piece feels stiff immediately after washing. As it dries, and especially as you wear it, the fibers will settle and become incredibly soft and pleasant to the touch.
