Created by Patty Thomas of Daisy Yarns of San Francisco for individual use (not to be copied or published without permission, www.daisyyarns.com), Jan-2009.

Sizes: One Size
Certified organic, long wearing, machine washable and dryable.
Materials: 3 balls (35 grams each of certified organic hemp yarn from Daisy Yarns of San Francisco an Online Yarn Store), Needles: Size 7 Double Bamboo Circular 16” length and one set of Size 7 bamboo double pointed needles, yarn needle, cable hook, stitch counter to count the rows where you cable, stitch markers.
Important Notes: 1. The hat was machine washed and machine dried before being photographed on model. 2. The long wearing hemp yarn knits with a slightly stiff feeling and shiny texture. However, after machine washing this disappears and it is as the photo shows. Washing the hemp changes the texture to a softer fabric. 3. Due to the organic nature of this yarn, each ball may contain two or three breaks that are knotted. However, unlike yarn from China, it is still extremely durable and holds up well under cabling stitches and machine washing. There are no weak thick and thin areas in the balls. This yarn still meets my very high standards.
