European nettle fibre bleached to create a pale golden white fibre, cut into shorter lengths (about 7 to 10 cm) and made into tops. Nettle tops are similar to bleached flax.
Nettle is strong and durable and it is easy to spin. You can spin it on its own just like spinning wool, there is no need for dressing a distaff. Nettle tops also work well blended with wool.
