Wool is a common term used for soft and woven fibers, which are mainly derived from domestic sheep wool and are widely used in textile production. Wool may be detached from the hair essentially due to the natural scale that covers the outer surface of any fibers. The various degrees of wool are innumerable, very small and thin, and are connected only at the base. Therefore, these fibers are woven together under pressure.
