Sue Hotovec explains how to spin yarn from your dog’s hair.

For most dog owners, shedding is at best an annoyance. For many of us, it’s the bane of our existence. For Sue Hotovec, the hair that her dog sheds is raw material for yarn – the more hair, the better. On this episode of the “Good Dog” podcast, Sue explains how to spin dog hair into yarn, describing the various steps involved, what type of dog hair works best, and what you can make with the yarn. She recommends books that provide a step-by-step guide for dog owners interested in turning the hair their dog sheds into something productive and long lasting.
