YAK
•Found in Ladakh, Tibet, Nepal
and Sikkim in India and also in
other parts of the world.
•The coat of the yak is
composed of three different
types of fiber that is the
coarse , the mid-type and the
down fiber.
•The properties of yak wool
are:- warmth, softness,
breathability, odor-resistance.
•Its wool is used for preparing
ropes, tents, bags, sweaters
etc.
ANGORA GOAT •Found in (Angora)
Ankara, Turkey, Jammu
and Kashmir , India
• Angora goats produce
the most lustrous fibre
known as Mohair.
•For long time these are
bred for their white coat
but now breeding of
colored angoras is
promoted.
• Mohair is used in
making carpets, scarves,
winter hats, suits, etc.
KASHMIRI GOAT •Also known as cashmere goats.
Found in Kashmir, china.
• It is fine in texture, strong, light,
soft.
•Produce double fleece that consists
of a fine, soft undercoat and coarser
outer coating of hair called guard
hair.
• The long, coarse guard hair is used
for brushes, and other non-apparel
uses.
• Pure cashmere can be dyed and
spun into yarns and knitted into
sweaters, hats, gloves, coats, jackets,
etc.
•The fibre is also known as pashmina
for its use in the handmade shawls of
Kashmir known as pashmina shawls.
CAMEL •Significant supplier
countries of camel hair are
China, Australia, Russia.
•The outer protective fur
(guard hair) is coarse and
inflexible and its undercoat
is very soft, gathered when
camel’s molt.
•Used to make tents,
carpets, cloaks.
•Properties:- high
thermostatic property
provide insulation and also
protection from heat.
ALPACA •Alpaca is found in south
America.
• It is soft, durable,
luxurious and silky natural
fibre.
• It is warmer, not prickly,
water-repellent, elastic.
•Alpaca fibre is used for
many purposes, including
making clothing such as
bedding, hats, gloves,
sweaters.
•It has a guard hair and
soft hair.
LLAMA •Found in south America.
•The wool is light weight,
grease free, luxurious and
soft.
•It has a fine undercoat and
coarser outer guard hair.
•It provides protection from
heat.
•It is used to make
handicrafts, garments, wall
hangings, ropes.

Rearing and breeding of sheep
• Rearing :-Act of raising young.
• Breeding :- The mating and production of
offspring.
• Sheep's are reared in many parts of our
country for wool. Sheep are herbivores and
prefer grass and leaves. Rearers also feed
them on mixtures of pulses, corn jowar, oil
cakes and minerals.
• Once the reared sheep have
developed a thick growth of hair, hair is cut off
for getting wool.
PROCESSING FIBRES INTO WOOL
• Step :-1
• Shearing:-The fleece of
sheep along with a thin
layer of skin is removed
from its body. This process
is called shearing.
• Premises and the shearing shed
Step:-2
Scouring:-The sheared
skin with hair is
thoroughly washed in
tanks to remove
grease, dust and dirt.
This is called scouring.
• Thorough acid washing
Step:-3
Sorting:-After
scouring ,sorting
is done. The hairy
skin is sent to a
factory where hair
of different
textures are
separated or
sorted.
• Sorting of wool
Step:-4
The small fluffy fibres
called burrs, are picked
out from the hair. These
are same burrs which
sometimes appear on
your sweaters. The fibres
are scoured again and
dried. This is the wool
ready to be drawn into
fibres.
Step:-5
Dyeing:- the
fibres can be
dyed in
various
colors, as the
natural fleece
of sheep and
goat is black
or white.
Step:-6
The fibres are
straightened,
combed and
rolled into yarn .
The longer
fibres are made
into wool for
sweaters and
the shorter
fibres are spun
and woven into
cloth.
