*Zibeline* is a thick, soft fabric <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloth> with
a long nap <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nap_%28textile%29>. It is usually
made of wool <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wool>, such as
mohair<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohair>or
alpaca <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpaca>, but can also be made from the
hair of other animals, such as camels <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel>.

Zibeline can also refer to either the sable<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sable>(
*Martes zibellina*) or its pelt, which zibeline was originally made from.
