Hemp in use

During its long history, hemp has been used for almost every form of textile material. It has been made into fine fabrics by skilful spinning and weave of carefully produced fiber, notably in Italy where a hemp fabric similar to linen is made. Nowadays, hemp is used mainly for coarse fabrics such as sacking and canvas, and for making rope and twines.

Hemp can be ‘cottonized’ by a process similar to that used for flax, so that the individual fibers are feed. Cottonized hemp does not spin easily alone, but it gives useful yarns when mixed with cotton(up to 50 percent hemp).
