Sheep to Jumper

Sheep to Jumper

Sheep live on farms. Sheep grow a coat of thick wool in time for winter. The new wool is clean and fluffy.

Sheep feel hot when the sun shines and get smelly. The wool gets sticky and mucky and has bits of twig and mud in it.

In June all the wool is cut off and loaded into big sacks. Sheep feel cool because the wool has been cut off.

The farmer sells the wool. The sacks are loaded on to a big truck and go to the mill.

At the mill the mucky wool is made clean. When it is clean they sort the wool into piles.
