Have you discovered the wonders of hemp and linen yarn? The glorious shine, the great stitch definition and the strength of such fibers make for excellent summer garments.
These plant fibers are breathable and absorb humidity very well, providing a very comfortable feeling even on the hottest summer days. They are also strong, so regular washing and drying not only does not damage them, but in fact makes the fabric softer.
In the quest to create more hemp pieces for the summer to come, I came up with a modern crochet top that is fast to make and easy to wear. Ruut is worked with simple crochet stitches and very basic techniques; but offers a sleek, modern look that is hard to miss.
Ruut means ‘square’ in Estonian.
The sample shown is made in size M and uses approximately 660 meters of yarn (3 skeins of Asa Taesa).
