This nettle has been harvested, washed, dried and hand spun into skeins of yarn. It is harvested and spun in the Himalayan Mountain Region of India. There may be slight over spinning, under spinning, tie-ons, as well as VM/Bark in the yarn due to the hand spun process. Nettle fiber gets softer with each wash so if you find the yarn stiff to work with, simmer the yarn in a water / surfactant bath for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

♻ Have fun upcycling this into your new project. ♻
