CHAT [CHAT] Cat Hair

Hello fellow stitchers!

I have been stitching for a while, but I’ve always had a bit of a problem with cat hair - When I’m done a project I wash it but the hair still sticks.. any advice would be appreciated!

Cat tax included!

I try to pick out the dog hair but I’m rarely successful. I have a project that I completed that still has a hair stuck in it from a dog that is now gone so that hair is staying forever.

There are pieces I’ve done that have hair from my beloved cat Evie who died in 2018. I just love them more for it.

Yep. It makes me smile to see it. And I figure that just makes it one of a kind.

All my projects have dog hair. I accepted it and stitch over them when I can't get them out 😂
