Wool or other natural animal fibers that have been cleaned and combed (carded) may be in the form of Roving, Top or Batts. The fiber is used for wet felting, needle felting, locker hooking, spinning, or weaving. Some other uses are basket decoration, mandelas and pieces knit into a jacket or mitten for a self-lined garment.
Roving is a long piece approximately 2-4 inches in diameter with the fibers in random direction. Top is also a long piece; however the processing is more complex. The combing and drawing of the wool keeps the individual fibers parallel. Batts are like flat roving, the fibers are in random direction but the initial shape is thinner in depth and can be several inches wide and long, (like a quilt batt).
