NETTLE
From stinging nettle to soft and fluffy yarn - it's not every day that we use a weed to make yarn, even if it's a useful weed. But it is true that nettle fibers have been used in clothing for thousands of years.
The nettle fibers have been spun together with a bundle of light and soft cotton and give the yarn ORTICA a unique wave effect. You can expect knitted garments with a naturally lively surface and a play between matte and shiny fibers.
