Chiengora® at Bloomberg // Last year I was interviewed by about the potentials of dog wool. As the extensive and well written article by David Ramly is behind a paywall, I want to just share a tiny little bit what I told David during our multiple meetings:
•
Ann Cathrin Schönrock: „I am convinced there needs to be much more research on the fibers of certain pet dog breeds to successfully produce a good yarn. This is why I am enrolled back at university and I also support others with the research about it.“
•
„The biggest challenge we face when wanting to bring yarns made from dog fibers successfully into the market (as an alternative to cashmere and other fine fibers), is creating a raw material sourcing system that works on a larger scale.“
