Rein 'em In
I have been making reins for about 7 years now. My first set of mohair reins I bought 8 years ago. I don't remember where I bought them, but they were a natural color, split reins about 10 feet long and I LOVED them! I think they were a mohair blend because I wore them out :-)
I tried to find another set to replace them but nope, nada, nowhere could I find them, so......I decided to make my own. I found a place to buy 100% Mohair so I bought some, bought a book and braided my own. Again a natural color.
I enjoyed making them so much that I made another set. This time a Dark Brown color.
Here is Jordan and I last year at a CTR at Turkey Creek. So I have used these same brown reins on Jordan for 7 years now. I still love these reins. So I started making them and donating them to some of the rides I went to for prizes. Turns out they were a big hit. So nice that others liked them too.
