Hemp yarn is more economical than linen, and the sustainable crop grows well in moderate soils, uses less water than cotton and produces a large amount of fiber per acre. Currently there is no US production of hemp yarn in the US because of Federal Regulations and a lack of industrial capabilities. We are working toward helping make the US hemp industry grow. Please note: this is the remainder of our original hemp yarn stock. What we have left is all there is of this yarn. We DO have new hemp yarn in stock.
