Cast on 98 St.
I washed my swatch and realized, the hemp shrinks. I am aiming for a medium size.
I am sure, this project with hemp will be the only one I will knit with this yarn. It behaves like a stiff string and hurts my hands. The color is the only good thing about it.
I am very disappointed. I just hope, washing will cure a lot of it`s problems. I have washed it twice, it is still "rough"! I will wear it over shirts and dresses. I like the fit and the color. The felted broche was made by my friend Bonnie ( Cimmaron on Ravelry) I just love it!

My 5th project of 2017
