I was thinking about knitting some little blankets and things to go in with my pigs as they're outdoors and I thought it would be something nice for them to burrow up in and keep nice and warm with but is it safe to do that? Will they eat it and is that dangerous?
Also, if it is, is there anything I can do to it to make it safe? Any kind of treatment I can put on it?
Sorry if the answer is really obvious but I honestly have no idea

No, I wouldn't use wool around them, as they are bound to pull and even eat string (this goes for any ribbon within reach). Ideally you only use fleece where they can get to.
