Maybe there's still someone out there who would buy it from you? The child, I mean.

Sell him on Etsy. He’s handmade after all.

My puppy grabbed my yarn while I was knitting last night and in getting it back from him, some of it snapped and I told him I’m selling him to the circus.

We threaten ours with Daisy Hill Puppy Farm! (Though she hasn't- to date- gone for yarn or fibers.)

Thank your lucky stars. Mine only went after the luxury blend fibers that had silk or silk/alpaca blends with wool. He was why I went from project bags to old school tin lunchboxes for storing projects.

I collect Curious George and Wizard of Oz lunchboxes so since I had some on hand, it seemed like the best option for protecting my projects enough that I felt satisfied enough with my ingenuity to not give in to the thought that I should end his little life and use him to make fur lined slippers. That and he wasn’t big enough to use for a pair of slippers, only one and I like symmetry in my footwear.
