Silk Hibernaculum, the place of refuge over winter for the Brown-tail moth caterpillar. People hate these animals they have groups on Facebook about the little caterpillars hair, cuckoos on the other hand love them 🍝. Its urticating (have an irritant effect) hair can cause breathing difficulties and rashes in contact with skin (from rhs.org.uk)
