Whenever hard-twisted woolen, worsted, cotton, and ray on yarn or yarn wastes are to be employed in woolen mixes, it becomes necessary to subject the stock to a garnetting process as a succession to rag picking or teasing. Garnetting has for its object the thorough breaking up of the waste and its return to a fibrous condition so that it can used in mixes with virgin wool or other stocks... 1, record 2, English, - garnetted%20wool%20waste%20in%20the%20white
