� On to the next step in our Making of a Blanket Series - Step 4: Carding

� After the wool is skirted, we pack it up and send it off to the mill. Once the wool arrives at the mill, it is washed, dried and carded. Wool carding is the process of brushing wool fibers to evenly align them. Carding is considered the "heart of spinning" because it produces fibers that are well-opened, parallel and blended - preparing them for the spinning processes that will make the yarn.
