Summary
By this study, the suitability of wools of newly developed sheep types like Tahirova, Acipayam and Sönmez for textile products and carpets have been investigated. According to the obtained results; Tahirova wool is suitable for woollen and semiwortsted, Acipayam and Sönmez wools are suitable for standard carpet production. On the other hand the wools of these types can be used for hand knitted yarn production by mixing them with other fibres.
