The Torah prohibits wearing clothes made of both wool and linen - this is know as Sha'atnez.
Even a single woolen thread in a linen garment is Sha'atnez, and a single linen thread in a woolen garment is Sha'atnez.
Threads made of a mixture of linen and wool may not be used.
Woolen garments with linen patches are also forbidden.
However, clothes made of leather - even if the wool is still attached - can be sewn with linen.
