If you are a sock knitter and would like to balance the durability of a super wash yarn with a non plastic reinforcing fibre with concern for the environment, our Onion Nettle sock yarn might be just the thing for you.
With the tight smooth 4 strand spin you would expect from a sock yarn, the 30% nettle fibre in this yarn lends not only strength but also drape which means that this yarn can also be considered for airy shawls and lightweight wraps as well as socks.
