We have been busy being lazy this long Memorial Day weekend. Just staying at home, eating good food, knitting a bit. The weather is lovely today, so a backyard picnic with roasted chicken and all the fixings are in the works. For today's knit.where outfit, I decided to pair a simple knitted top made out of hemp with some loud shorts. 'Cause nothing screams summer like a pair of Bermuda shorts :) I forgot how much I love this carefree go-with-everything top. Hemp is such a great material for spring/summer items. Have a happy start to your week!
I didn't know you could get hemp yarn- going to google that now!
ReplyDeleteYour top is gorgeous. I haven't knit with hemp before, I will have to give it a try! Enjoy your picnic, it sounds like a perfect way to spend the day.
ReplyDeletehow many washings does it take to get that hemp to soften up??? I've started knitting with it several times and always end up sending the projects either to indefinite time-out or the frog pond---it's so rough and scratchy. Your top looks neither rough or scratchy----lovely.
ReplyDeleteI need an easy to wear, go with everything top this summer. I usually end up in t-shirts. I need to jazz it up. Love the shorts!!! And the top is awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect summer sweater ... need to give hemp a try!
