Shearing: The fleece (hair) of sheep is shaved off along with a thin layer of skin. In olden days this was done using pair of metal blades. But now-a-days machine is used to cut off the fleece. This is similar to shaving of beards or hair. This process is called shearing.

Shearing is generally done in summer so that sheep could get new hair by winter to get protection against cold.

Sorting: After scouring, fleece is sorted according to texture. This process is called sorting.
