What you always wanted to know about wool!
The Product of Bremer Woll-Kämmerei : Wool Top
The word "top" stems from the Old High German word "Zopf" meaning a tuft of hair. In the wool industry it designates a continuous strand of the longer wool fibres after straightening and separating from the shorter fibres by combing. In pre-industrial days the wool actually was pulled through a comb by hand. The short fibres and the tufts of wool known as "naps" were held back by the teeth of the comb as so-called "noil". The purpose of combing was in those days exactly the same as today: to prepare the wool for the spinning of fine, uniform yarns known as worsted yarns. more >
