Thanks for your comments on both the...Hi Everyone:<br /><br />Thanks for your comments on both the hemp yarn and the Fresh Crochet Design book project. I'm pretty excited about it. :) Just keep in mind that there are looooooooong wait times between project acceptance and publish date. Don't expect to see this anytime prior to the third quarter of 2012.<br /><br />In terms of the hemp - it's got a linen-like feel, and is slightly stiff in it's pre-project state. It will soften and relax with use and washing. One can always hasten that process by soaking it (once the object is finished) in a cool water bath with some hair conditioner.<br /><br />Finally, the colorway is called Azalea. Perfect, yes?Voie de Viehttp://voiedevie.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731089319669955573.post-6117389825118618742011-09-19T16:44:53.507-07:002011-09-19T16:44:53.507-07:00That hemp yarn is a beautiful color according to m...That hemp yarn is a beautiful color according to my monitor. I'm wondering about the feel of the hemp yarn. Is it soft? Or is it slightly stiff like linen or flax?AllyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09725757369290716724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731089319669955573.post-50531889547890908182011-09-19T13:56:09.050-07:002011-09-19T13:56:09.050-07:00I love that color.

I actually intend to weave with the yarn I create from it. I totally have back shower scrubby in mind. I can't wait to see what design you create with that beautiful yarn.WonderWhyGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14427923229119655073noreply@blogger.com
