Abstract

The article focuses on the challenges of dealing with sticky, compacted, and entangled fibers before spinning yarn and approaches to reviving and preparing the fibers for spinning. It focuses on three methods to revive fibers: steaming, combing and carding. Steaming hydrates and refreshes the fibers, while combing and carding help to further prepare the wool for spinning by aligning and loosening the fibers.
