Woolen
Woolen refers to textiles made from wool, a natural fiber obtained from sheep and other animals like goats and rabbits. Woolen fabrics are known for their warmth, softness, and durability, making them popular for clothing, blankets, and other textiles. The process of creating woolen fabric involves carding, spinning, and weaving or knitting the wool fibers.
Woolen materials can be classified into two main categories: worsted and woolen. Worsted fabrics are made from long, smooth wool fibers, resulting in a finer texture, while woolen fabrics are made from shorter fibers, giving them a thicker and fuzzier appearance. Both types are used in various applications, including sweaters, coats, and scarves.
