{{Info|'''Sheep wool''' is a type of [[fabric]] gathered by [[Skills#Animals|animal handlers]] by shearing tamed [[sheep]].}}

==Acquisition==
Sheep wool is acquired by shearing tamed [[sheep]] - each sheep can be sheared every {{Q|Sheep|Shearing Interval Days}} days for {{Q|Sheep|Wool Amount}} wool, for an average of {{Q|Sheep|Daily Wool Average}} per day.

It can also be purchased from [[trade]]rs.

==Analysis==
Along with the other [[wool]]s, sheep wool has the second worst protective stats of any [[textile]] in the game, only beating [[cloth]] by virtue of heat armor. But like other wools, sheep wool excels against the cold, offering the 8th best cold insulation. In comparison, its heat insulation is lacking, at 19th of all textiles.

This makes sheep wool clothes largely relegated to cold insulation; for example, using it for [[parka]]s may allow pawns to wear other, less insulating clothes. Compared to other wools, sheep wool has the worst insulation in heat and cold. As [[furniture]], it has a marginally better [[Property:Beauty Factor|beauty factor]] than other common textiles. Care should be taken, as all wools in RimWorld are exceptionally flammable.

The benefit of sheep comes from the animal's low hunger rate, ease of taming, and lack of maintenance. Sheep also beat out [[muffalo]] and [[bison]] in Per Day production, though barely. This allows large flocks of sheep, and thus sheep wool, to be easily acquired and kept at almost any stage of the game. If available, [[alpaca wool|alpaca]] or [[megasloth wool]] are better options for bulk textile production.

==Trivia==
Contrary to wool in real life, wool in [[RimWorld]] is more flammable than [[Cloth|cotton]], rather than less.
