Does anyone know if you need better wool to make batts this way, or if the wool from meat breed sheep would work too, since it isn't actually touching your skin. I have access to an almost unlimited amount of wool, but it is all from meat breeds, not fiber breeds. I know it matters for making yarn. When my husband was growing up, there were woolen mills that the sheep farmers took their wool to. Now all the mills are gone and the sheep farmers have nothing to do with their wool.
