Wool
- The primary factors in fiber size and
crimp are genetic. Different breeds have
different wool. Then as for variations in
fiber size among sheep of the same breed
or even the same sheep the chief factors
are age, sex, and level of nutrition.
Males have coarser wool or as the wool
people like to say a higher micron value
at a given age than females. The micron
value increases as the sheep age and diet
affects size as well. Old overfed male
sheep give wool of the highest micron
value for their type.

World
Islamic Front for Jihad Against Jews and
Crusaders
- In 1998 Islamic
Jihad and al-Qaeda
formed the World Islamic Front for Jihad
Against Jews and Crusaders. Islamic
Jihad ceased to function as an
independent organization. The merger also
spelled the last gasp of Islamic Jihad as
an anti-Egyptian Government effort and
shifted to focus on Osama
Bin Laden plans to attack the US and
her allies.
Worsted
- Worsted wool is combed rather than carded
prior to spinning. Combing straitens out
the individual wool fibers more than
carding so the yarn has less loft. In a
man's suit this is a good thing because
with less loft the fibers can be spun
tighter which makes a harder wearing
fiber. For rugs however worsted wool is
far less common.
Woven
Legends Restoration, Inc
- Woven legends operated a full-service
Oriental carpet restoration facility at
the Aegean Free Zone in Izmir, Turkey.
This makes it possible to draw on
qualified workers and still avoid duties
and shipping problems. I have seen their
work and it is very good. They are not
inexpensive but compare favorably to the
better restorers. Bob Mann seems like a
nice person but all I can say about
George Jevremovic is that even though my
friend Ron O'Callaghan likes him George
won't return my phone calls.
