Wow, what a great color of hemp cord! SO shiny too! It's called "turquoise polished".I was thinking about using hemp cord in some way to add to the bohemian feel of my shrinky dink bracelet, but the colors I have might not do it justice so I started looking around.
WOW, again! There are some pretty spectacular colors out on this website called Hempbasics. Take a look if you get a chance.
If you know of any other great colors, PLEASE let me know!!

Perfect timing! I just ordered an assortment of polished hemp from Fire Mountain Gems. I got a package of ten colors of 1mm polished hemp in ten yards each just to see if I liked that effect. They have a variety of colors in both the polished hemp or just regular hemp at this page: http://www.firemountaingems.com/search/?Keywords=hemp . One thing I like about this source is the small assortments of colors -- there are a bunch of packages that come in four colors each, such as 4 shades of green, or a set of pastels. There are fewer colors available by the spool, but still some different colors than the source that you listed. I don't know if you're interested in this, but they also come in different diameters -- mostly 1mm, but there's also an assortment of colors in 0.5mm. I am eagerly awaiting my order, as I had never before heard of "polished" hemp. I hope you find some other colors that you like; have fun shopping!
that is a gorgeous color, and I'm glad to see Allie's post as well. I've only used natural in the past. I'm going to assume that 'polished' hemp has a softer feel than the regular?? Thanks so much for this post!
Shirley, that's what I'm hoping from the polished hemp! I will try to update once I get my hands on it :)
