[under heading 'Using Yak Fiber', sub-heading 'Fiber preparation and spinning tips']
The hair, should you have some, will feel ornery and opinionated but can be spun into interesting, heavily textured, strong yarns; it's tempting to call them cords instead. ---- The Fleece & Fiber Sourcebook
The finest yak down is comparable to cashmere and qiviut, but the hair is "ornery and opinionated". Sounds dwarvish to me even without any info on what it smells like. And yes, I do need to get a life! ;)
