If you think you have an allergy to wool, first ask yourself "do I have sensitive skin?" If so, you may find yourself itching when you wear any fabric with course fibres.

Before giving up on wool completely, try wearing clothing made of a softer fibre, for example cotton, under the wool garment.

You may also notice a difference between a course-wool sweater, and a fine wool pair of pants. If the latter is OK but not the former, you probably don't have a wool allergy.
