W ool is the textile fibre obtained from sheep and certain other animals,
including cashmere from goats, mohair from goats, alpaca, camel from animals in the camel family, and angora from rabbits.
Wool has several qualities that distinguish it from hair or fur: it is crimped, it is elastic. In the U.S. the term wool is usually restricted to describing the fibrous protein derived from the specialized skin cells
called follicles in sheep, although in the U.K. it may be used of any long curling fibre such as wood wool, wire wool etc.
Wool's scaling and crimp make it easier to spin the fleece by helping the individual fibres attach to each other, so they stay together. Because of the crimp, wool fabrics have a greater
bulk than other textiles, and retain air, which causes the product to retain heat. Insulation also works both ways; Bedouins and Tuaregs use wool clothes to keep heat out.
