 German  English

Was sich kratzig und unangenehm anhört, fühlt sich ganz anders an: Brennnesselfasern sind sehr fein und dennoch reißfester als alle anderen Pflanzenfasern, ihre glatte Oberfläche verleiht den Stoffen einen Glanz, der dem der Seide in nichts nachsteht. [G] It sounds scratchy and uncomfortable, but it feels quite different: nettle fibre is very fine and yet it is more resistant to tearing than any other plant fibre. Its smooth surface gives the fabrics a sheen as lustrous as silk.
