it's a common error - even amongst little-known 70s phrases, "wool" is rather arcane!

strange wool    

Potential female sex partners who are unknown to the pursuing party. First coined in the cult classic movie The Warriors.

"One thing we might get out of Cyrus's get-together is meeting some strange wool. I wouldn't mind laying something down on the way back."

=-=-=
