coarse wool
Unrefined sheep fiber
Coarse wool comes from sheep breeds that produce thick, strong fibers with a rough texture.
It lacks the softness of fine wool like merino but excels in durability, making it suitable for rugs, outerwear, and upholstery rather than garments worn against the skin.
The coarse wool held up well in the heavy-traffic areas of the house.
