The various steps for processing fibres into wool are as follows:

Shearing: The tleece 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 hair of different textures are separated or sorted.

The small fluffy fibres, called burrs, are picked out from the hair.

The fibres can be dyed in various colours, as the natural fleece of sheep and goats is black, brown or white.

The fibres are straightened, combed and rolled into yarn.
