Pet fur fingerless gloves.
Send me your pet fur and I will hand wash it and handspin it into yarn. I will then hand knit the pet fur yarn into a pair of fingerless gloves.
Keep a part of your beloved pet with you forever ❤
These fingerless gloves can be made from cat fur, rabbit fur, dog fur- pretty much any fibre can be made into yarn, please message me before ordering just to make sure the fur is suitable for spinning.
2 options available (more by request)
Short fingers gloves which are long enough to pass your wrists will use 40g of pet fur.
long fingerless gloves carry onto your forearm and need 60g of pet fur.
The mens option is slightly wider than the women’s option to accommodate wider hands.
the photos show the short version- I hope to add more photos of the long version soon – I will also add slightly different designs- which at the moment can be requested – send me a message with a photo of what you would like and I can give you a qoute.
On to the boring bit, but it is important you read before ordering-
The pet fur will need to be mixed with sheep’s wool in order to make a strong enough yarn to use. I will select a sheep’s wool that matches the colour of your pets fur.
The amount of wool to be mixed in can be discussed.I can mix in, just enough to make yarn or 50/50 to increase the amount of yarn to use.
for example if you only have 20g of fur I can add 20g of wool to make the 40g needed. or if you only have 15g I can add 25g of wool.
All fur needs to be at least 1.5 inches I have worked with 1 inch fur but I don’t recommend as I want you to be happy for years to come and not disappointed if the fur starts to fall out of the yarn in the future. (this is a little different for double coated fur, it does make better yarn, so does last longer)
Aftercare- i would recommend you do not wash in a machine. hand wash only.
I do wash the fur multiple times (at least 3) before knitting.
Once your order is placed. I will send you the address. you then need to ship me the fur (your cost) please include a note with your name , address and ‘etsy order’ . I process the fur, wash and dry, card, hand spin it, wash and dry, set , then hand knit it and then ship it back to you. (the shipping back to you is included on your order).
the process usually takes around 2+ weeks depending on the size and other spinning work I have on my wheel.
if its an urgent order please message me to make sure I can squeeze you in.
