We are using 100 percent Nettle handmade yarn. The Sweater has different colors because the same color yarn is not possible in each dresses cause same plant comes out yarn color light to dark.
The Sweater was handmade in Nepal and is made with 100% Nettle. The Sweater has not been treated with aggressive detergents, (it has not been treated with any detergent ..) which are usually used to have a finer touch. The Sweater will become softer over time, washing with mild soap or for delicate clothes, in a natural process.
Allo, also known as Himalayan Nettle (Girardinia diversifolia), is a tall, stout herb. The bark is harvested because the fibers are strong, smooth and light in weight.The fabrics made from allo are naturally antibacterial and mold resistant. When the fibers are processed and woven, the fabric has a natural sheen.
Some recommendations to wash Nettle:
To care for Nettle Fabrics, hand wash in cold Water with an ecological detergent or an ecological neutral soap. Unlike many conventional soaps, neutral soap consists of 15 to 30 percent surfactants. It is "neutral" because it has a pH value of seven and is therefore exactly in the neutral range between acidic and alkaline. On the other hand, curd soap usually has a pH value of 8 and higher.
Stains should be treated according to stain-specific recommendations. For best results, line or flat dry away from direct heat sources. High heat can cause the fibers to shrink. Ironing should be done while the fabric is damp. Before ironing, stretch the damp garment to its natural size and shape. Use a low temperature iron and turn the garment inside out to avoid pressure points and preserve the natural fabric.
