Dog Hair

I posted to the list a month or so ago, about the dog HAIR spinning challange. I've posted a couple of pictures below, one just close up of the dog, the other showing her coat before shearing. The hair texture mats easily, spins and looks more like horse hair. Any comments or suggestions on how to proceed would be appreciated. I'm afraid to start this undertaking.

First Yarn and Weaving

I'm posting pictures of my first skein of yarn and what I am weaving with it. With the 2 foot triangle loom I will make 9 panels and sew them together. I didn't think I would have enough yarn to use my 7 foot triangle loom. As it turns out I would have, oh well. I'm very pleased with the overall consistency of the yarn, it's 3 ply. Will post finished shawl when done.

In the beginning. . .

I've decided to create a blog, to show some of the fiber things I am working on, or jewelry, or dogs. What ever comes to mind. Below is my most precious girl Raven.
