ONION No.3 Organic
100% Natural fibre yarn - Luxury and organic yarn.
A fun kind of organic yarn in a mix where the wool is 100% organic.
The nettle is on the other hand not organic, since it is a very hard fibre in nature.
A light and lovely yarn with very beautiful stitches when it is knitted.
The nettle gives the yarn a beautiful nacre shimmer and at the same time gives the yarn its colour transitions since the nettle can't receive any colour.
The nettle fibre also makes the yarn very durable and therefore it is perfect for sock knitting as well as knitting for adults, children and baby.
The nettle fibres have been used for garments for centuries.
Back in the days, it was also called a poor man's silk, since it has some of the same properties as silk but at a lower price.
