Animal hair can't be used in order to make cloth.
It can only be used in hospital.

It's not a bug.

Note :
Your 4 "troll fur clothes" are made of troll FUR (can be weaved), not troll HAIR.

i still had 1 troll fur yarn that cant be made into cloth, because it was used in hospital and then stored in cloth stockpile instead of the hospital container again. so something seems awry anyway. also if you cant see which stuff can be made into cloth or not, all i see "i have some yarn but cant make it into cloth somehow". that is confusing :x

Have replicated this issue with a variety of animals, from camels to giant bats. This is is particularly irritating when yarn cloth is the one item your bookkeeper needs to complete his mysterious construction, and the next scheduled caravan is elves (who, being vegan, never carry yarn).

Why can animal hair not be used to make cloth?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haircloth [^]

Possibly "Will not bring hair thread to cloth stockpile" thing should be a separate bug?

if hair yarn is dyed then it can be used to make cloth.
