_________________
The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Somewhere in the MIMF library I believe Michael Lazar described how to make "wheat " purflings.

A student that sets their sights high and achieves it is a great thing. (but dangerous)
