it varies by company , type of yarn ( like wool , acrylic, blends, etc) but as a rule it would be around 200 yards up to about 275 yards . at 200 yards you would be figuring safe
Yes. The wool of a sheep is sheep's wool.
The current range for residential wool carpet would run from $20 per yard on the very cheap side to $100 and up. per square yard.. ($2-22 per square foot) One other comment if I may.. Wool is allergenic to many people & absorbs water/stains like a sponge. If you like the style, color or need the snob appeal of wool, then choose wool. If you want better performance at about half the price, go for a good nylon.

A skein is the small bundle one would buy at a craft store.A hank is a bundle of skeins. Defined as follows:a traditional measure of length for yarn. The length of yarn in a hank varies with the market and the material; for example, a hank of cotton yarn traditionally included 840 yards (768 meters) of yarn, while a hank of wool yarn was 560 yards (512 meters). For both cotton and wool, these traditional hanks are equal to 7 leas or to 12 cuts. In the U.S., however, a hank of woolen yarn is generally 1600 yards (1463 meters). In retail trade, a hank is often equal to 6 or 7 skeins of varying size.(http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/dictH.html#hank)

This varies with the thickness of the yarn. A conversion from weight to length should be given on the ball band. For worsted weight yarn 400 yd would be about 227 g.
Yarn is used inside of a baseball and not thread. It is wound so tightly that it appears to be thread when examined. Three layers of wool yarn and one layer of cotton yarn is used, the total length being approximately 371 yards. Click on the 'Making Baseballs' link below to read about how a baseball is made.
Cotton wool is absorbent cotton -- gauze, for example. You may be able to craft something useful or interesting -- from your imagination.
