Wool was probably the first animal fiber to be made into cloth. The art of spinning wool into yarn developed about 4000 B.C. and encouraged trade among the nations in the region of the Mediterranean Sea. There are 40 different breeds of sheep in the world producing a rough estimate of 200 types of wool yarn with varying standards.
The processing of wool involves four major steps. First comes shearing, followed by sorting and grading, making yarn and lastly, making fabric. The finishing of fabrics made of woolen yarn begins with fulling. This process involves wetting the fabric thoroughly with water and then passing it through the rollers. Fulling makes the fibers interlock and mat together. It shrinks the material and gives it additional strength and thickness.
Wool yarn is used to make sweaters, dresses, coats, suits, jackets, pants and the lining of boots.It can also be made into blankets and carpets.
