There was the briefest milisecond there, when I had a totally different image in mind before I read ... "of my stitching!" @rotfl:

I, too, have had to deal with pulling out long, fine grey/blond hairs (mine) and now also have short, tri-color ones (our new cat's). At least hers are easier to see!

Good idea! My dog's hair (short but tenacious!) always manages to find it's way into my stitching! I usually just poke at it with the needle until it falls. Between her and my boyfriend's beard hair, it's a wonder my projects aren't just all brindle and black. :doh:

My dog's hairs are like little needles... sometimes I take off my sock ready to dig out a splinter that's been bugging me all day and it turns out to be a dog hair embedded in my skin :\
Heather, are you sure your dog isn't really a porcupine? :? :P
