Elsebeth Lavold writes in her book, "The collection itself grew out of a couple of stitch patterns -- the ones for Tulipa and Tilia. Then as I was swatching the new yarn, Hempathy, I found that its properties and colors were perfect for developing a whole theme with flowers and leaves. Thus, all of the designs got names derived from Latin plant names."
Many designs in Silky Wool can be knitted in Hempathy as well. You will need slightly more yarn than for Silky Wool. All designs in Hempathy can be knitted in Silky Wool. Please knit a swatch and check your gauge.
