What if cat hair was not waste?

What if it was… a natural resource?

Meet our primary wool supplier: Lyle.

Locally sourced. Naturally woolly.
Free-range within the apartment.

Next week, we harvest again.

We are documenting every step of our cat-wool journey until we hit a world record or Lyle stops shedding.
