Content: 100% nettle Origin: Nepal Meterage: approximately 130-150m per 100g
A single ply, thin yet strong with a very earthy, organic tone and plenty of fibrous specks. Ideal to use in textured tapestry, rugs etc (not so much for garments), to crochet into washers etc if you're looking for a bit of a scrub effect. Softer, lighter feel than the similar style hemp
About the nettle
This nettle is grown and spun in Nepal by community artisans. Alongside hemp, nettle is sold through local rural cooperatives at fair trade prices and produced using natural methods and no chemical processing.
