Description: To the authors and experienced spinners, dog hair is "merely
another nifty fiber to experiment with" when making yarn. They describe the
yarn potential of different breeds and tell how to gather and card hair and
spin it on a simple device. Includes knitting instructions for various
garments and a directory of spinners who work with dog hair.
