My little girl sheds so much that I could make an entire wardrobe out of her 
hair.

Collect the hair and see if your friend could spin it into some nice yarn, 
for you!

I don't know what kind of dog she is, but our dog sheds so much wool about 
drives me crazy.  Did you all know that I have allergies?  Rabbits, Dogs and 
a cat oh my!!!  I bet any one day I could fill a grocery bag full of her 
hair.

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.
