| Description |
PLEASE, no multi invitations, glitters or self promotion in your comments, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE for anyone to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks - NONE OF MY PICTURES ARE HDR. There are different types of wool used for different purposes. At Ross Farm there are two different types of sheep with completely different fleeces. First the wool must be washed of its lanolin and dirt. This task can be time consuming and is done on warm summer days. There is still however, more dirt in it that needs to be removed. Here the lady is picking the wool apart to remove the remaining dirt. While doing this the remaining lanolin in the wool softens their hands as they feel the texture of wool before being processed. Next, carding the wool is needed; by using hand cards the fibres can be straighten, it is needed before spinning can take place. By straightening the fibres the wool can be made into rolls. This allows the wool to be fed into the spinning wheel. Spinning is the final step in wool processing, the process of making wool into yarn. |
