bedazzledx2 Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I'm looking for someone in WA who can spin dog hair....I have collected several bags of Samoyed undercoat from the many many many hours of combing!!!!! Years ago I saw a cardigan that someone had knitted from her Sammy's undercoat and it was stunning! Soft and light like a cloud. Any ideas?

If you had posted this yesterday I would have asked the ladies spinning Angora fleece today if they can do dog hair Maybe contact someone like the angora society or alpaca society and see if they could suggest someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they will find it strange, if she doesn't know she has enough contacts that probabaly will know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
