I found this on a small meadow. Looks like silk threads so I guess it could be made by some spider. A nursery perhaps? I really have no idea. It was on a grass leaf. Length about 4mm. This appeared to be the only one there. Looking at the photo it looks like ther is someone in there.

Thanks!

it can be really a Gnaphosidae (spider) "shelter"..
There are salticid spider that can construct somehting like that as well.
