circa 1885: Women spinning and carding wool outside the local post office in the Caledonian Canal district. Natural wool needs to be spun to make a continuous length of yarn to work with. The first part of the process is carding, or combing, which teases out the fibres so they can be spun and twined together to make the yarn strong enough to be woven or knitted.
