Hello all!

Following the links on cotton netting suppliers raised to mind some questions 
I've been curious about for some time....Maybe someone on this list has the 
answers! I have seen references to horsehair netting having been used prior to 
the invention of rayon and nylon. First, how was horsehair net made, since the 
hair is smooth and can't be spun into a continuous thread? Second, was 
horsehair net used for lace-types of applications? And third, does anyone know 
if 
real horsehair net is still available?

Thanks in advance,
