WHAT IS WOOL ????wool, animal fibre forming the protective covering, or fleece, of sheep or of other hairy mammals, such as goats and camels. Selective sheep breeding eliminated most of the long, coarse hairs forming a protective outer coat, leaving the insulating fleecy undercoat of soft, fine fibre.

REARING
Rearing means to look after the sheep by
providing shelter ,food and health care. The
person who look after the sheep is called a
Shepherd. Sheep are herbivores which means
they only eat grass and leaves . So , shepherds
take them to open grass lands for grazing
.Apart from grazing grass the sheep are also
fed the mixture of pulses , corn , jowar , oil
-cakes and minerals. In winters, sheep are kept
indoors and fed on leaves, grains and dry fodder .

SortingThe fleece is sorted into grades by individuals who have developed a keen sense of touch. They sort the fibers according to fineness, length, and color. Each wool product is made from a different type of fiber, and the sorter divides the fleece accordingly. Thick, short fibers are used in tweeds. Thinner fibers are used in fine wool…

Combing is straightening and stretching the fibers to obtain maximum spinning capacity.
