Answer 2

The deriving and processing of wool involve five main steps. They are as follows:

1. Shearing
2. Grading or sorting
3. Washing or scouting
4. Carding
5. Spinning

• Shearing: Sheep shearing is the method by which the woolen fleece or coat of a sheep is cut or shaved off. The person who removes the sheep's coat of wool is called a shearer. Once a sheep develops a thick fleece of hair, it is cut off to obtain wool. The process of shaving off this woolen fleece of sheep along with a thin layer of skin is called shearing.
• Carding: It is a mechanical process that detangles, clears and intermixes fibers to produce a sliver suitable for subsequent process or a continuous web that can be laid out into batting. In preparing wool fiber for spinning, carding is the step that comes after scouting.
