1 Grease Wool
Wool as it comes from living sheep with the grease still in it. About 70 per cent of the wool in London is in the natural or greasy condition. The fleeces contain all the natural secretions which are present on the fibres during life, in addition to the whole of the yolk and suint within the fibres, and the dust, sand, earth and vegetable matter which have lodged in the fibres during their growth. These maintain the natural properties of the wool during transit and also facilitate the process of manufacture. -
2 Wool Yield
Raw wool in the greasy state contains a great amount of extraneous dirt and grease. Before wool is made into yarn, the dirt and a large proportion of the grease or fat is removed by washing, preceded sometimes by a shaking or dusting operation which shakes out loose dirt. The yield of clean wool varies with the locality where the sheep have been reared, and may be from 45 per cent to 75 per cent of the greasy weight. -
3 Wool Fat
Wool during growth has a quantity of fat or grease in its composition which has the dual effect of helping to maintain the health of the sheep and of preserving it from deterioration through the action of the weather. The fat in various growths of wools varies from about 9 per cent to 20 per cent of the greasy weight of the fleece. -
4 New Zealand Wool
A high-grade crossbred wool and one of the most useful wools of commerce. It is obtained by crossing merino ewes with Lincoln or Leicester rams. It has a staple of good and regular length and is soft in handle. It is used extensively for mixing with shoddy and mungo fibres to impart bulk and spinning qualities. New Zealand wools in the main are fairly free from vegetable matter, and this gives the wools a value very often more than like qualities from other countries. Merino wool is a small part of New Zealand production, probably not more than 5 per cent. The wool is generally free from vegetable matter, but is rather "lean" in character, the quality is not equal to the better-known Australian types, while the shrinkage is fairly heavy owing more to heavy grease rather than earthy matter. -
5 Punta Arenas Wool
Tierra del Fuego is a fine wool country, and its wools are more commonly known as Punta Arenas. Although some merino is produced, by far the greater amount is fine crossbred with the 56's quality predominating. Punta wools have a character of their own, due to the crosses used, but largely influenced by climatic conditions and pasturage. Much of the wool is heavy in shrinkage due to the loose soil being blown furiously by high winds. The colour is often beautifully white, probably due to the heavy earthy matter in suspension preventing the natural grease from tingeing the wool before scouring is„ effected. The wools are very spongy and blobby, and although occasionally un-uniform in fibre diameter, have a value of their own where apparent substance is accompanied by lightness in weight. The wools are chiefly used in the United Kingdom. -
6 South American Wool
Three-quarters of South American wool is of a Lincoln character, due to the importation of these sheep for crossing purposes. The Argentine gives the biggest supplies of long, strong, preparing wool suitable for Bradford machinery, while a fair amount of finer cross-bred wool from 48's to 56's quality of a good combing length is grown in the Republic. Argentine wools are subject to " burr " trouble, and this varies in degree according to season. South of the Argentine there is a fair amount of wools of a merino and fine crossbred character, these being chiefly from Chubut, Santa Cruiz, Deseado, etc., but these latter are mostly unattractive and wasty owing to loose soil, often with occasional grey fibres, lacking uniformity in length and diameter, and difficult of estimation from the grease state to the clean equivalent.Dictionary of the English textile terms > South American Wool

7 Mushy Wool
Wool which is dry, open and badly defined in staple, and which on being combed will noil heavily, This condition of the wool is due to the absence of grease, dryness of climate and lightness of soil. -
8 In The Grease
Signifies wool in its natural state as it comes, from the sheep's back with all the grease and other impurities attached to it. -
9 Decreasing Wool
The scouring process that removes the natural grease from raw wool by the action of volatile solvents, such as naphtha, benzene, bi-sulphate of carbon, etc. -
10 Pitchy Wool
Wool in the grease. -
