| Comments: | I think this is just the usual sorts of wool used for knitting and weaving. The amplification in the 国語辞典 is really aimed at Japanese users/readers who may not be that familiar with it. I don't think it's necessary or appropriate in the English glosses. ("recycled wood" doesn't make for great knitting.) |
