Description

Our beautiful Nettle yarn is soft and hand spun with the natural texture and occasional over spin creating a lovely thick and thin slub effect. 

Fabric crafted from Nettle softens beautifully with wear, does not itch or scratch and is gentle against the skin with a lovely drape.

The gorgeous hat shown is crocheted with a 4mm hook and colour Dandelion. The super easy pattern is the Basic Bucket Hat pattern available free from jennyandteddy.com.

    The Details

    • 100% Nettle grown in the Himalayas
    • Weight: approx 100gm / 3.53oz
    • Width: 1 - 2mm / 0.04 - 0.08in
    • Length: approx 180m / 197 yards
    • Suggested needle: 3.25 - 6mm (US 3 - 10)

    The fibres of the nettle are hollow which gives nettle fabric natural insulating properties - keeping you lovely and warm in winter and cool in summer.

    A highly sustainable and eco friendly crop, Nettle is naturally resistant to pests and disease and is pesticide and fertiliser free. It is a much greener fibre than many other plant-based alternatives including cotton.

    • Natural fibre which breaths - perfect for summer garments, hats, bags, jewellery, face washers & body scrubbers
    • Single ply
    • Hypoallergenic - ideal for sensitive skin
    • Extremely durable and strong
    • Hand spun using natural Nettle fibre
