Ginger, Carabou is like deer for spinning, but much more 'spongy', and not as strong. It cuts easier with thread while spinning, and it is no where as durable as to bending breakage. But it makes a great, super-soft mouse.
I just picked up some elk mane and extra-long white bucktails from Rocky Mountain Dubbing.

I suppose I can spin it like deer hair. Any love or hates of the beast? Anyone want to trade for some? Don O does it make up well into mice? Ginger M.
