I really do not have time to spin and sell any yarn. I tried it once years ago and it was disastrous - I ended up being owed for almost all I had spun and swore never again. Now I just spin for myself and friends. Sorry.

I have quite a bit of dog fur/hair that I need 'spun'. What are your fees?

What do you charge to spin dog hair into yarn?

After watching an animation of a spinning wheel, watching your videos, I just now understand how this works ^.^

I have to say that this is one of the best informational video's I have ever watched. Thanks for your time in video taping this for us. Very Interesting!

@Spin2Weave it does reduce the fuzz, i've only done it with wool...i read on a site that it helps bind the fiber together and reduce the shedding...it says you still get the halo but i imagine it would be reduced....i hit my local groomer and got allot of doggy fiber...can't wait to spin it up!

that bobbin looks soooo fluffly, does it benefit form fulling like they reccomend for cat and angora?
I've NEVER heard fulling recommended for cat/angora (bunny?) and I've spun both. What you want is for the yarn to bloom - become fuzzy and develop that "halo" like angora. I work hard not to felt mine - but I suppose you could try it if you do it with the other fibers. I'm thinking it would drastically reduce the fuzz factor.
