From Fiber to Fabric: Wool's a Natural

http://tidd.ly/3318ae06 Secret Sale page at T.M.Lewin
This 1977 (15 minute) historical look at fiber, narrated by Orson Wells, follows the history of wool from before Egyptian times to the present day. This movie is especially useful in your social studies curriculum, as it discusses how England withheld sheep from the early colonists to control the economics of the colony. Old and new spinning techniques and looms in operation are shown.
