Hemp derived from the cannabis plant can be used as a more sustainable alternative in a variety of products we use daily like paper, clothing, rope, and now, yarn! Hemp yarn is more environmentally friendly and sustainable than a lot of other yarn fibers, while also being a little sturdier too. It comes in a variety of colors and weights, so you don’t have to just settle for one type. If you’re looking to make your own hemp sweater, scroll on down and see our list of top 10 hemp yarns!

Hemptique Hemp Yarn - $7.29
|
Hemptique’s hemp yarn is more of a cord in nature; it’s a much heavier weight hemp thread for weaving but still works as hemp yarn for knitting or hemp yarn for crochet. It’s not as soft as hemp wool, but it’s sturdy and thick. This fiber tends to be a bit stiff, especially when dyed like the one pictured, so we recommend using it for projects like bags, baskets, doormats/rugs, etc.

Hemp Basics Bleached Super Fine Lace Weight Yarn - $29

This is also a super fine lace weight yarn, which means the fiber is much closer to that of string or thread. It’s great for projects with small, elaborate designs like shawls and doilies.
