A Ball of wool is used in the Crafting skill to create jewellery. It can also be used to make some items on a loom. It is created by using wool with a spinning wheel, which grants a player 2.5 Crafting experience.
It can also be purchased for 5 coins from the seamstress Oronwen in Lletya, Jofridr Mordstatter in Neitiznot, Aemad of Aemad's Adventuring Supplies (the general store in east Ardougne), or from the Carefree Crafting Stall in Keldagrim each of whom stocks 100 balls of wool which aren't in noted form. Also, Hamab's Crafting Emporium supplies them again for 5 coins. They are also dropped by Ice trolls and Imps.
Four balls of wool (and level 10 Crafting) can be used to make a Strip of cloth at a loom, giving 12 Crafting experience. (The strip of cloth, a quest item, should not be confused with the Bolt of cloth, a Construction item.) A ball of wool is also used to string amulets, giving 4 Crafting experience. Members with at least level 80 Magic are not restricted to balls of wool when they wish to string their amulets. As an alternative, they may use the lunar spell String Jewellery to achieve the same goal, provided they have competed Lunar Diplomacy.
It used to be used in the quest Sheep Shearer, but isn't anymore. Instead, players must now gather 20 balls of black wool. This was done to prevent people from simply buying balls of wool for an easy quest completion.
Balls of wool are also used to keep your cat busy. Just use a ball of wool on a cat and your cat will play with it.
Balls of wool are also used to make the milestone capes at a loom. One is needed to make the Milestone cape (10), two to make the Milestone cape (20), and so on.
