FANEEL – Handwoven Himalayan Nettle Fabric

EXPECTED DELIVERY EARLY NOVEMBER

100% Himalayan Nettle | Hand-Spun & Handwoven in Nepal | Straight Weave

Discover the distinctive texture and natural character of FANEEL, a traditional handwoven fabric made entirely from Himalayan nettle (Girardinia diversifolia).

Wild-harvested, hand-spun and woven in Nepal, this beautiful plant-based textile combines strength, texture and traditional craftsmanship. Its naturally earthy shades and individual variations make every length unique.

Unlike our ALLO Himalayan Nettle Fabric, which features a herringbone weave, FANEEL has a classic straight weave. Both fabrics are otherwise identical in fibre composition and production.

Please note: Himalayan nettle (Girardinia diversifolia) is a different plant from European stinging nettle (Urtica dioica).

The Fabric

Himalayan nettle is a remarkable natural fibre, traditionally valued for its strength, durability and insulating qualities.

The fabric has a distinctive, rustic texture that gradually softens with washing, handling and wear. Its natural colour varies depending on the harvested fibres, creating subtle differences between batches and individual woven lengths.

The straight weave gives FANEEL a classic appearance, making it particularly suitable for garments, accessories and interior textiles where natural texture and character are appreciated.

Traditional Craftsmanship

FANEEL is produced in Nepal using traditional fibre-processing and weaving techniques.

The Himalayan nettle plants, which can reach heights of approximately three metres, are harvested by hand. The extracted fibres undergo a traditional softening process involving wood ash, stone beating and clay treatment before being hand-spun into yarn and woven into fabric.

Production supports Nepalese makers, including women and families who work from home, helping preserve traditional textile skills while providing paid employment.

Suitable For

  • Clothing: Jackets, blazers, trousers, waistcoats and outerwear

  • Accessories: Bags, textile accessories and decorative pieces

  • Home textiles: Cushions, table runners, curtains and tablecloths

  • Creative work: Embroidery, textile art and traditional craft projects

Care Instructions

Wash at 40–60°C. Allow for approximately 10% shrinkage, particularly before cutting fabric for garments or fitted projects.

We recommend prewashing and testing a small piece before beginning your project.

Ordering & Availability

Multiple quantities will be supplied as one continuous length whenever possible, unless otherwise requested.

As this fabric is entirely handmade, slight variations in weave, width, texture and natural colour are part of its character.

Availability is limited by traditional production. Please contact us for larger quantities or bulk enquiries.

ÉRIU DK SOFT – Special Collection

Irish Wool Blend | DK Weight | Naturally Dyed Multicolour in Ireland 🇮🇪

This special collection explores the full palette of natural colour.

Using Ériu's signature Irish wool blend of Romney lambswool and Bluefaced Leicester, each skein is dyed individually at AppleOak FibreWorks using a wide range of traditional natural dye sources. Colours emerge through layered dyeing, over-dyeing, and careful handling in the dye vat, creating rich multicolour variation across the yarn.

These skeins carry movement, depth, and quiet unpredictability — tones shift along the length of the yarn, revealing themselves fully only when knitted.

The wool is sourced directly from Irish farms and spun in Ireland. Each skein is then naturally dyed in our studio using sustainable methods and a combination of homegrown and traditional natural dye materials.

No two skeins are fully identical.

Natural dyes used

This collection may include colours created using:

• Logwood
• Madder root
• Weld
• Buckthorn bark
• Sage and other plant dyes
• Oak galls
• Cochineal (insect-derived, not vegan)

These dyes may be used individually or in combination through layered dye processes.

Cochineal is a traditional natural dye derived from insects and is not vegan.

LIMA

Wool, Tussah Silk & Linen | Sport Weight | Naturally Dyed

Lima is a quietly complex yarn — combining softness, structure, and light with the subtle texture of plant and silk fibres.

Made from a balanced blend of wool, tussah silk, and linen, Lima offers strength and breathability alongside gentle lustre. The tussah silk, often called peace silk, is produced after the silk moth has naturally emerged from the cocoon. This creates a slightly more textured fibre, which interacts beautifully with natural dyes.

The addition of linen introduces a delicate speckle and gentle irregularity, giving the yarn visual depth and character.

Soft yet structured, Lima is especially suited to garments for warmer seasons, offering comfort, breathability, and durability.

The wool is sourced and processed in Peru. Linen from South America and tussah silk from China are blended and spun with the wool in Peru. Each skein is then naturally dyed at AppleOak FibreWorks using traditional, sustainable natural dye methods and organic dye materials.

Fibre: 50% pure wool, 25% linen, 25% tussah silk
Yarn type: 4-ply (Nm 14/4)
Weight: Sport weight
