I have been working out a way to mount a piece of bucks point lace for a
clock face and laid it onto a piece of white card to check out the size we
had drawn, only to see a dark line in it. On closer inspection it turned
out to be a hair from our dear departed who has been gone for 3 years. I
think her hair got into my folder and onto the lace which it has been
sitting for some time unused until now. I was able to remove the hair quite
easily, which surprised me after all your comments.
Another Sue in Dorset UK where it is still dry and bright along rain is on
its way.
Obviously the cats wanted to be part of the wedding!! LOL

Many years ago, a friend was rushing to finish a piece of lace about 8 x
8
inches for applique to her daughters wedding dress. Her two calico cats
were
very good at depositing their hair on the pillow. After attempting to
pull
each hair, she finally gave up and decided that it would come out in the
wash. DID NOT. The lace shrunk and more firmly embedded all the cat
hair.
The end solution was to take a straight razor to the lace and shave off as
much as possible, both front and back. There are still remnants of cat
hair
