Synopsis: The properties of plant-based yarns--cotton, linen, hemp, and others--are unique, naturally. They don't behave the same as wool yarns; to show off their best characteristics you need the right project. Knits from the Greenhouse is here to help you cultivate these fibers into beautiful finished designs. Dig in to find:

   • High fiber knitwear using 100% plant-based fibers, as well as blended yarns.
   • 18 projects designed specifically to show off the best properties these fibers ensure you have a beautiful finished project no matter the season.
   • Helpful tips and tricks from agrarian designers who love working with plant-based fibers.
From soil to skein to finished project, working with plant-based fibers is a joy with Knits from the Greenhouse--green thumb not required.
