Erika Knight's Wild Wool is a sustainable and soft blend of wool and natural nettle (or viscose).  Nettle has been used for more than 2000 years because of its strength and durability as a textile, and it is grown abundantly in rainy areas without the need for pesticides, making it eco-friendly and sustainable.  The wool is from sheep raised on non-mulseing farms.

Wild Wool is a single ply worsted weight yarn.  It has moderate drape and reasonably good stitch definition with a slight halo.
