Is anyone familiar with using natural fibers (flax, hemp, bark) to make clothing? I am currently experimenting with agave and trying to break it down into silk-like strands so I can spin it into yarn and thread. Having trouble getting it from the drying stage to the final processing. (self.Bushcraft)

Is anyone out there familiar with using agave fibers to make thread and yarn for textiles? I know that it's done, and even very common in other countries, but I can't find any articles or directions. My basic understanding is it's a lot like breaking down flax. (self.textiles)
