I was given some Bouvier dog fur to spin.
The fur was made of two different fibres, the soft undercoat (on the left) and the overcoat (on the right). Separating the two fibres proved too lenghty, so I decided to spin the fur as it was.
The fur was quite slippery, so I used the inchworm technique to spin it. Plying has relaxed the fibre and the result is not as prickly as I first thought but still too harsh for next to skin wear.
I have about 200 metres for 140g, WPI 13.
