I blended it on a drum carder to give it some substance. I used net bags to wash it before I spun it and added some hair conditioner (Pantene) in my last rinse to control it from flying away and give it a nice smell before I spun it. Wet dog hair is not very pleasant unless it is clean. <BR/><BR/>I would imagine that working with cat fur would be the same. Good Luck!

I have 2 long haired cats of my own, and would love to learn how you prepared your fur before you spin it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
