Wool is the fiber derived from the hair of domesticated animals, usually sheep.
Wool is processed into clothing, carpeting, felt, and padding.
The spinning capacity of wool is determined by the technique known as wool classing, whereby a qualified woolclasser might group wools of similar gradings together to maximise the return for a farmer wishing to yeild the most from the sheep's fleeces.
Traditionally this wool was much sought after by the numerous home spinners as well as the small local woollen mills as it is sufficiently fine, soft and densely stapled to be regarded as a speciality type.
The wool is dense and demi-lustrous and is amongst the finest from the native sheep breeds producing a high quality lustre yarn.
The wool is coarse and kempy and attractive speciality fabrics are made from it using the undyed wool from sheep of different ages.
