This is made of Allo fiber; the Stinging Nettle from Nepal.

In the foothills of Nepal’s Himalayas the stinging nettle plant grows in the wild. Himalayan nettle (allo) is considered finer, stronger, and more elastic than linen. The development of this fiber creates work and income for many Nepalis and brings a durable and sustainable textile to market.
