WOOL. QUALITIES
Wool fibers have amazing el
asticity which enable them to
stretch a’bou 30 per oent bey
ond itheir length, yet spring
back to original measurements.
This means that wool garments
don’t confine body movement.
Besides its elasticity, wool is
a good insulator. It can absorb
up to 30 per cent of its own
weight in moisture without
feeling damp, and up to 50 per
cent of its weight in water
without becoming saturated.
