So Edward has become a slave to the cat brush, and i am a slave to Edward and the brush. As the stacks of fluff collect, i have returned to pondering something i used to ponder when brushing GreyBrother and GreyBeard: can't i make stuff out of this?
The internet says yes. Yes, cat hair can make yarn, and yes, it felts. I don't know that i'm up to spending $17 per oz yet, though.
Am i crazy to spend $30 on a book and drop spindle?
I think i'll wait to make the purchase after i collect four ounces of Edward fluff. That seems a reasonable amount of fiber from which to begin experimentation.
Then i read a blog post like this one, and my mind reels away at the impact of all the jargon. Yoiks, spinning sounds hard!
