Dog Yarn & Cat Yarn
FAQ & Pricing
Blog
Your pets' hair and fur (cat, dog, rabbit, horse, etc.) can be spun into a beautiful yarn that you will treasure. It can be as simple as saving your dog or cat brushings from a relaxing grooming session. The dog yarn or cat yarn used to create your special keepsake will bring a smile those who love and appreciate their pets. And a few will not quite understand why you would want to do that. But is there any real difference in wearing the pet yarn scarf made of the pet you share your life with vs a sheep that lived out on the back 40?
And be sure to send a 'sample' to me and have it spun into dog yarn or cat yarn at no cost to you! A small palm full is more than enough (2 brush fulls) to work with to create your dog yarn, cat yarn, or any pet yarn.

Spinning your pets' hair, dog or cat, is yet another way to recycle. It is a creative and resourceful way to reuse the materials at hand. I also carry beautiful batts that combine the best in luxury; soft fiber tops in wools you don't see everyday like camel, suri, gotland and wensleydale; opulent fiber top in muga silk, eri silk, and tussah silk; ecologically friendly Tencel and sari silk; my own satin angora rabbit fibers. |
