Your pets' hair and fur (cat, dog, rabbit, horse, etc.) can be spun into a beautiful yarn that you will treasure. It can be as simple as saving your dog or cat brushings from a relaxing grooming session.

   And be sure to send a 'sample' to me and have it spun into dog yarn or cat yarn at no cost to you! A small palm full is more than enough to work with to create your dog yarn, cat yarn, or any pet yarn.

Welcome!  Keep your pet close to you forever with yarn spun from their fur. Dog yarn, Cat Yarn, or Pet yarn.

  Spinning your pets' hair, dog or cat, is yet another way to recycle. It is a creative and resourceful way to reuse the materials at hand.

   I also carry beautiful batts and roving created from raw products that are natural and environmentally friendly: direct from the farm suri alpaca and shetland fleeces; ecologically friendly Tussah silk and Tencel; my own satin angora rabbit fibers. Available at shows only.

Fiber Notes

July 1, 2009 I have added an organic acid dye line, Greener Shades, to dye my batts with and will offer the dyes themselves. This is very exciting to find a product with professional results and not worry about heavy metals.

June 2, 2009 SpinOlution has released the Mach II, with ratios up to 23:1. The Mach I is discontinued. I have one Mach I left in stock and have significantly reduced the price.

May 14, 2009 I was interviewed as part of a writeup for a news article written by Katy Hall, for the New York Times News Service.

April 29, 2009 As a result of many requests for my batts online I will be bringing them back online within the next 3 months. I will be working out a system where it is easy for you to see what I have in stock, accurate colors and easy for me to keep up with. Thank you for your patience.

March 30, 2009 SpinOlution released a new spinning wheel in March, a travel wheel called the Bee, with ratios from 5:1 to 35:1. Now in stock.

I will have both of these wheels available to demo and sell at the Kid 'n Ewe, Boerne, TX, 13-15th in November.
