Surprising Pet Fur Crafts

Two unconventional craft books caught my attention as a pet lover.

I found one book called Crafting with Cat Hair: Cute Handicrafts to Make with Your Cat by Kaori Tsutaya. If your cats shed regularly, you may feel excited about this revelation. The book advertises these as fast projects.

If your furry friend is a dog, there’s also the book Anne Montgomery’s Knitting with Dog Hair: Better a Sweater from a Dog You Know and Love Than from a Sheep You’ll Never Meet. This one’s more expensive, but you could apply the cat one to dog fur.

I’m planning on getting the cat one myself. I’m sharing information about these books since they look like a great idea. Not only do you receive joy from your pets, you can craft with the fur they shed or from their brushes.
