The merino sheep gives the finest of all wools up to 80's counts, which is very soft and white.

An all-wool fabric with a twill weave, dyed in colours, and variously made 25-in. to 27-in. wide, from 64 X 36 to 120 X 96 ends and picks per inch, 30's to 36's warp and 40's to 44's weft. Today merino or botany wool is only used in the production of worsted fabrics of the highest quality. There are, however, fabrics known as merinos that are not truly named - the hosiery trade makes a fabric from a mixture of cotton and wool and the low woollen trade know a shoddy fabric as a merino. Merino cloth was first produced in 1804 at Rheims and known as Shale. -
