Wool is the fiber from the fleece of the sheep or lamb or hair of the Angora or Cashmere goat (and may include the so-called specialty fibers from the hair of the camel, alpaca, llama, and vicuna) which has never been reclaimed from any woven or felted wool product. Virgin wool and new wool are also used to refer to such never used wool.
Wool is actually quite soft and luxurious. Some wools are scratchy giving some people the idea that they are âallergicâ to wool. Although wool fiber comes from a variety of animal coats, not all wools are scratchy but rather extremely soft.orsted wool is smoother than woolen, takes shine more easily, does not sag, holds a crease well, is lighter and less bulky, and wears longer than woolen. Worsted wools require a greater number of processes, during which fibers are arranged parallel to each other.
