Waves or kinks in a sheep's wool are known as crimp. It is a natural feature of the wool fiber that gives it elasticity and helps trap air for insulation. The crimp in wool fibers also contributes to the characteristic softness and warmth of wool products.

Sheep are born with about 1 cm of wool on them. Most medium wool breeds will have 2 inches of wool on them by the time they're one year old. More finewool, carpet wool, and other wool breeds can have over 1 foot of wool by the time they're one year old. But not all sheep have wool. There are some breeds, like the Katahdin and Dorper, that have hair instead of wool. All hair breeds do grow a winter wool coat, but it is shed in the spring.
