The utilization of local wool resources has become an urgent issue for the development of Uzbekistan's textile industry. Karakul sheep wool, abundant in the country, is traditionally underused despite its high thermal insulation and elasticity. This research investigates the effective blending of wool with synthetic fibers (polyester and acrylic) to enhance yarn performance and industrial applicability. Emulsification technology was applied to improve fiber compatibility, leading to stronger, softer, and more uniform yarns. Results showed that wool-acrylic blends provide warmth and softness, while wool-polyester blends ensure durability. The study highlights wool's strategic importance in advancing sustainable textile production in Uzbekistan .
