A coarse natural fiber cultivated from the inner bark of the hemp plant. Primarily used in twines and cordages, hemp has most recently been processed into apparel fabrics. Much like linen in hand and appearance, hemp is naturally UV resistant and dries quickly. Hemp also wrinkles easily and should not be creased excessively to avoid breakage of fibers. A sustainable fiber, hemp can be grown without the use of pesticides and actually fertilizes the soil in which it is grown.
