Wool Comb
Type of tool: grooming/finishing
Use with: sheep, bison, mountain goat, and many fur-on textiles
The foundational grooming tool for sheepskins. Sheepskin wool is typically knotty and tangled; use this tool to detangle the wool threads after tanning, leaving the sheepskin fluffy and clean of seeds, dirt, or detritus trapped in the wool.
Tool use: for the first grooming of a newly-tanned sheepskin, place tines of comb at base of wool and gently pull outwards. Move in a systematic way all around the hide. This is called “line combing.” It thoroughly cleans the wool. Make sure the hide is completely dry when doing this. For subsequent uses, comb the sheepskin wool at random to fluff it up again.
After the initial grooming, you can spritz a sheepskin with water to get the curls back. Use this tool to fluff up a sheepskin rug for maintenance at any time.
7.25″ long x 2″ wide
