Handloom Nettle Cotton Scarf | Natural Kora | Handwoven Eco-Friendly Scarf for Dyeing & Daily Wear

Handloom Nettle Cotton Scarf — Natural Kora | 70 x 200 cm

A scarf rooted in slow craft and sustainable living. This Handloom Nettle Cotton Scarf from House of Swadeshi is handwoven from a blend of nettle and cotton yarn — a pairing that brings together the earthy resilience of nettle fibre with the soft breathability of cotton.

Fabric & Construction

Woven entirely by hand on a traditional handloom, this medium-weight scarf carries the subtle texture and natural warmth that only handwoven fabric can offer. Both edges are finished with hand-tied tassels, adding a clean, decorative detail that elevates the scarf from functional to artisanal.
