I remember learning about it in primary school. The types and more especially the wool part of it for making blankets and jackets. Generally warm clothing. I saw one and took a snap of it . Isn't it lovely! I remember the name as well Merino sheep! It's meat is mutton so tasty!! Do you have any woolen item? Or had it before?

I have some lovely woolen sweaters and cardigans. But, my city gets no winter. I get to use them when I travel to cold places. I enjoy knitting too.

. We all have such favourite things, we tend to overuse them. We feel so attached to them.

@arunima25 you are very right we even forget that we like them so much that people can give us names like " the red, wollen jacket girl or the silky, blue shirt man "

I have lovely sweaters. But in Calcutta winter is only there in December and January. So we hardly get chance of wearing woolen clothes

Yea wollen clothes are soft and warm and heavy too so when it's not that cold no need to put on a wollen thing cause you'll heavily sweat

I have a wool blanket, but that’s about all. Wool clothing makes me too hot, and sometimes itchy.

I have a couple of woolen sweaters. When on a package tour of New Zealand I saw thousands of sheep grazing along the road. We were in the bus and they looked like cotton balls from a distance.

What a wonderful looking sheep, I live in the US in Florida and it is mostly warm al year round and hot in the summer, However, when I lived in Latvia in northern Europe I always wore wool socks in the winter,

The sheep is adorable. I would hate to eat him. Lots of wool on him. I want to go to a farm and see sheeps, ducks, cows , and chicken.
