The various steps for processing fibers into wool are as follows:
- Shearing: The fleece of the sheep along with a thin layer of skin is removed from its body.
- Scouring: The sheared skin with hair is thoroughly washed in tanks to remove grease, dust, and dirt.
- Sorting: The hairy skin is sent to a factory where the hair of different textures is separated or sorted.
- The small fluffy fibers, called burrs, are picked out from the hair.
- The fibers can be dyed in various colours, as the natural fleece of sheep and goats is black, brown or white.
- The fibers are straightened, combed and rolled into yarn.
