7 Shetland Wool
A very fine and lustrous wool from the Shetland sheep, in white, grey or brown and is one of the most expensive wools. The wool is scoured and spun by hand, then treated with sulphur fumes and made up into hosiery, underwear, fine shawls, and crochet work. The wool is an undergrowth found under the longer hairy wool and is not shorn but pulled by hand. It is very soft and silky, of medium length and felts well. The 1938 crop was about 150,000-lb. Only a small proportion of this weight is really fine. Hand-spun yarns are produced from the finest of this wool which give 30,000 to 40,000 yards to the pound. -
