Description

The listing, Spin It: Making Yarn From Scratch has ended.

This is a 33 page instruction book on how to spin your own yarn! How to wash it, card it, make your own spindle from household items, and some weaving and knitting patterns at the end.
I was planning to make yarn from pet hair (what a waste! All that brushing and all that fur seems like it could be put to good use) but found out dog and cat hair is actually too warm for people!

Questions & Comments

Thanks for the warning!

Where did you find this out? I spin my dog's hair, and so do many more people. It even has a proper name, Chiengora, look it up and spin. SPIN LIKE THE WIND!!!!!

At an art and craft fair I asked a woman who was spinning...she said dog hair must be mixed with wool so it isn't too warm. I guess that scared me away and I shouldn't have taken one person' sword for it! I will look it up, thanks ;)
