Wool is made from animal hair that has been spun in order to become yarn and up to twenty strands of animal hair are used to create wool fabric. The more the wool is spun, the softer it will get. Wool that is very soft is also very valuable.

Wool is also used to line boxes, shelving, and other surfaces that need to be softer so that items that are palced inside will not break. Wool can keep heat from escaping because it is denser than other fabrics. Bedding and blankets are also created using wool but clothing is the most popular when it comes to using wool. The fabric is east to clean and will last for many years.

It is recommended that wool blend clothing be washed in cold water to prevent shrinking. Other clothing items may have to be dry cleaned instead.
