Abstract

The invention provides a method for making fur bearing strands from hides of fur bearing animals and a yarn from such strands suitable for producing a fur garment. The yarn has low stretch characteristics by virtue of treatment of the hide portions used to make it. Strands are made from hide portions joined side by side at abutting longitudinal edges and slit transversely of the joined portion. A yarn is made from the strands, which may be joined end to end, by longitudinally twisting them so that the fur is substantially about the exterior thereof.
