Paula Lishman's exclusive, patented yarn is made from genuine fur pelts--sheared beaver, fox, mink, and muskrat. The pelts are hand cut into a narrow, 1/8 "(2. 5 mm) wide strip. This strip is re-enforced with colour-matched cotton and twisted, so the leather is on the inside covering the cotton, with the fur radiating outwards from the centre. The yarn is dyed in a dazzling array of colours, from rose beige to deep browns and beyond, covering the fashion range from classic to trendy. 1, record 2, English, - fur%20yarn
