Kammgarnspinnverfahren
http://www.fashion-base.de/Modelexikon/kammgarnspinnverfahre...

A tightly spun wool yarn with no air in it is called worsted; it is handspun from a roving or combed top, and the fibers all lie in the same direction as the yarn. A woolen yarn, in contrast, is handspun from a rolag, where the fibers are not as strictly aligned to the yarn created. The woolen yarn thus captures much more air, and makes for a softer and generally bulkier yarn.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_(textiles)

A rolag is a roll of fiber generally used to spin woolen yarn. A rolag is created by first carding the fiber, using handcards, and then by gently rolling the fiber off of the cards. If properly prepared, a rolag will be uniform in width, distributing the fibers evenly.
