Comprised of hemp blended with cotton and modal, Elsebeth Lavold Hempathy is a slightly textured yarn that is a WEBS favorite.
Hemp is an incredible plant fiber that is valued for its strength and durability. It won’t wear out — instead, it will wear in — getting better with age. It will retain color better than any other fiber, including cotton, due to its porous nature which also allows the fiber to breathe. Hempathy blooms nicely when washed, so swatching is essential
