Any suggestions for untangling this jacket?

Beyond sitting & brushing it?

I did wonder about a dog brush, but don't have a dog, and don't really want to pay a fiver for a brush for one project.

Pic attached. Tia!

Home bargains /cheapy shops often sell tangle teaser style brushes for a pound-ish. They are great for this kinda job, that style of material will probably need doing again

Oh! @Lifeetc I'm reasonably sure dd2 has a cheapy one of those somewhere. I'll ask her now, thank you!

Well, my excitement was short-lived. Dd2 gave it to dd1, who seems to have got rid at some point <sigh>. I'll pick one up at the weekend.

I've done the front right & front of one sleeve with a normal brush so might do a bit more tomorrow.

We have a ridiculously curly dog, it's the only thing that works on her so bought a spare (so we would never be without) and the spare had been used to fix a flokati rug which came up perfect.
Fingers crossed for your jacket.

@lucysmam Any luck? Hope it's worked for you.

I'm just on the way into town with the girls for a few bits so we're going to pick one up while we're out. I'll report back later on...

@Lifeetc you are in fact a genius! Much quicker with the cheapy tangle teaser, and much less sheddy! I only have odd bits of fluff now instead of big piles like I had using a normal brush. Thank you! I'll get my bead tassels on it sooner than I thought now 😊

lucysmam · 17/02/2024 14:29

I bought a faux fur hat once. Ds said I looked like a lovely sheep... Put me off and I never wore that hat. Hope you get Dolly the coat sorted op!!

@lucysmam Yay! I'm pleased it worked for you!
