Which of the following statements about the process of obtaining wool is incorrect ?
Answer: C
The incorrect statement is shearing is done after scouring.
Wool is processed in this order: shearing (removing the fleece), scouring (washing it to remove grease, dust and dirt), sorting (separating hair of different textures), picking out the burrs, dyeing, and finally straightening, combing and rolling into yarn.
Scouring washes the fleece, so it can only be done after the fleece has been sheared off. The other statements fit the order: sorting comes after shearing, shearing comes before picking out the burrs, and dyeing follows the removal of burrs.
