Fleece refers to the soft, woolly covering of sheep and is derived from the fibers produced by their hair. The origin of fleece dates back thousands of years, with early domestication of sheep occurring in the Near East around 10,000 years ago. Different breeds of sheep produce various types of fleece, which has been used in textiles for clothing and blankets throughout history. Today, fleece also refers to synthetic materials designed to mimic the warmth and softness of natural wool.
