I have some natural fiber yarns that have not worked for me for a particular project, so I use them in the garden to tie up vines, etc.

Since natural, if they decay or a bird picks off a section for a nest, I think it's OK for the environment.

Ugh I have mohair nightmares. It's like Velcro and super glue all in one!

I am relatively new to weaving, and I use a rigid heddle loom. I will NEVER again use mohair to weave. I learned the hard way...ended up with a huge, knotted ball of unsalvageable turquoise fluff!

Me too, re: the birds. Also through out bits of fluff from spinning. Makes me feel like I'm "helping".

Never thought of the garden use though, I like that. Thanks, greyling.

I often throw dribs and drabs of leftover yarn out for birds to use in their nests!
