{"product_id":"nettle-wool-3-ply-fabric-66-wide-430-gsm","title":"Nettle-Wool 3-Ply Fabric, 66\" Wide, 430 GSM","description":"\u003cp\u003eA rare, deeply considered nettle–wool 3-ply fabric that sits at the intersection of performance, heritage, and slow craft. At 430 GSM, this is a truly heavyweight textile — dense, insulating, and structurally impressive — yet refined rather than bulky. The 70% nettle brings breathability, tensile strength, and a cool, dry hand, while 30% wool contributes warmth, resilience, and natural recovery. The 3-ply construction gives the cloth exceptional depth, stability, and dimensional presence, making it feel architectural, protective, and quietly luxurious. This reads artisanal, long-lasting, and provenance-rich — a fabric meant for serious making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2) How It’s Made\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis fabric is constructed as a true 3-ply (triple-cloth) textile, meaning three interlaced layers are woven simultaneously and bound together at intervals to create a unified, structurally complex cloth. The yarn blend combines nettle bast fiber with fine wool in a balanced proportion, allowing the strengths of both fibers to complement each other. The finish is clean and functional — not overly softened — so the fabric retains its integrity, breathability, and natural fiber character while remaining garment-ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e3) Technical Specifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFiber: 70% nettle, 30% wool\u003cbr\u003e\nConstruction: 3-ply (triple-cloth) woven fabric\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 430 GSM (very heavyweight)\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth: 66 inches (168 cm)\u003cbr\u003e\nFinish: Garment\/home finish, natural hand\u003cbr\u003e\nStretch: None (very stable woven)\u003cbr\u003e\nOpacity: Fully opaque\u003cbr\u003e\nSurface character: Dense, layered, subtly textured\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e4) Handfeel \u0026amp; Drape\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCool and slightly dry from the nettle, balanced by the warmth and resilience of wool.
