leather worker friend gave me some thin Black Bear skin. It stretches really nicely but I have had mixed results dying it. Once a brown dye came out very nice, the next time using the same hide and dye it turned out orange and I had to dye it black to get a good result. I have been using thin calf skin lately and is is nice to work as well. The calf skin came black so no dye needed.
