Wool is the dense, warm coat of sheep, also called a fleece. The hair of sheep has many unique properties that make it well suited to textile production. Wool is used in a variety of textiles and can be found woven or knitted. It takes away moisture from skin and keeps dry. Cotton is a soft, white, downy substance consisting of the hairs or fibers attached to the seeds of plants of the mallow family, used in making fabrics, thread, wadding, etc. Wool keeps warmth better than cotton.

Is a sweater an insulator?
snow is a good insulator, especially when it remains in frozen state.
Is cottom wool a good insulator?
Cotton wool has a very low density and has thousands of pockets to trap air in. Because of this, cotton wool is a good insulator, but there are others that are better. As a rule of thumb, the lower the density, the better the insulator. There are virtually no exceptions to this.

No because water is a good conductor of heat in comparison to wool.
Is wool a good heat insulator?
yes and no it depends on what wool and what you want to insulate ?
Why are wool socks a good insulator?
Wool is both a good thermal insulator and good electrical insulator. However as most wool socks are knitted they have many small openings that electric sparks could jump through, so they are not safe to insulate high voltages.
