Yarn of combed wool, not put up for retail sale
In plain English
This category covers yarn made from combed wool that is not packaged for direct sale to consumers. The items are split into two groups based on their wool content. One group includes yarn where wool makes up eighty-five percent or more of the total weight. The other group covers yarn where the wool content is less than that percentage.
