The wool which is used for knitting sweaters or for weaving shawls is the finished product of a long process, which involves the following steps:
Step I: The fleece of the sheep along with a thin layer of skin is removed from its body. This process is called shearing. Machines similar to those used by barbers are used to shave off hair. Usually, hair are removed during the hot weather. This enables sheep to survive without their protective coat of hair. The hair provide woollen fibres. Woollen fibres are then processed to obtain woollen yarn. Shearing does not hurt the sheep just as it does not hurt when you get a hair cut or your father shaves his beard. The uppermost layer of the skin is dead. Also, the hair of sheep grow again just as your hair does.
