My mom had a great pyreneese and a woman that she worked with would pay her to bring in ziplock bags of Rumor’s (the dog) hair as mom would brush her or have her groomed. She would actually spin it herself and said it was some of the nicest yarn she came across.
Very interesting! Now of course when I get into knitting, Rumor has passed away and I don’t get the chance to learn to spin it (for my own knowledge)!
I have a siberian husky and I have been saving his hair for a while…it seemed a little odd at first, but I decided it is no more odd than yarn from a sheep! :roflhard: It is sooooooooooo soft…his breed is one that has an “undercoat” so it will be great for yarn. An my house stays more hair free from frequent brushing
