Deluxe Native's Ponchos [PO300] The Wool The Llama is a two-coated animal. Its fine, downy undercoat gives protection from cold and heat. The second coat of crimp-less guard hair allows moisture
and debris to be shed. The British Wool Marketing Board uses several tables, including the Bradford Count, to determine wool quality. These tables include fineness, staple length, presence of outer
hair, luster, crimp, vulnerability to chemical damage, etc. The fineness chart, which gives the diameter of the fiber, has the Llama very close to the top position.
