The Design

“Small handmade gifts make big impressions.”

A gift that's hand-knit? So meaningful in the eyes of your host or hostess. It looks like you went to so much trouble! Here's an easy, relatively quick gift idea using a quintessential cross-season yarn,  from Hemp for Knitting. We love it for our Picot Edge Washcloth—it gives us a nice exfoliating scrub, even though it gets softer every time we pull it out of the dryer. Add a bath bar for an even more lasting impression!

If you don't already have the pattern, you'll find it above, along with the DK-weight hemp. Find out more about the yarn on our page.
