woolpack

Baled fleece shipment

A woolpack is a large bag or bale for packing and transporting raw wool, historically a standard unit of trade.

The word extends to anything resembling such a bundle—particularly the large, rounded cumulus clouds that billow like stuffed wool sacks: Woolpacks drifted across the summer sky.
