Solution

The steps involved in wool processing are:

1. Shearing: It is the process of removing fleece from sheep.

2. Scouring: The contaminants in the sheared wool are removed by washing the fleece thoroughly and then drying it.

3. Carding: It is a mechanical process in which wool is pulled many teeth of the carding machine to spread them into a continuous web.

4. Combing: In this process, the short fibres are removed and long fibres are aligned.

5. Spinning: The aligned fibres are converted to yarn in this process.
