I know its not quite that simple, I’d have to make thread first, and after I get enough, make clothing out of it. Could this actually be done? I can sew, but never made my own clothing nor have I ever made thread, so I don’t know if it could actually be done or not. I’m 100% sure the time and effort would not be worth it, or money spent on stuff to produce the thread, etc. But looking at my lint garbage pale made me wonder.

    The fibers are too short, but you could probably make a neat paper out of it.

      Depends on the material- if it’s wool or some other animal hair, it probably could be felted. It’s already halfway there.

      Another option is as insulation/batting.
