Step one: Go gather gold on your main at the best gold per hour you can.
Step two: Sell said items.
Step three:.....
Step four: Profit!
Seriously, if you've got an outlands toon, you're better off spending 30 minutes there leveling/grinding out golds than picking up wools. Unless of course you're on Gnomeregan, since the wool stacks can be upward of 3G..... ><

I'm with baveux, the fact is it's just not worth farming unless your server is over-priced.
I power-leveled my tailoring on my priest once I hit 70 and the amount of wool you need is minimal compared with others - I'd say under 10 stacks, on my server that would equate to around 6.5g - this much would take you a couple of hours to farm, when if you even spent 10 minutes farming motes, for example, you'd have 10-20g sale for your primal.
From the 4 realms I've been on linen, wool and silk are fairly cheap, though this does vary from day to day. Mageweave on the other hand is quite expensive and although you'll not need as much of this as you will silk you'll save money by farming some of that now in advance rather than wasting your time on farming wool.
From selling lots of cloths on my realms, I'd say the prices (from smallest to largest) are generally linen, silk/wool, runecloth, mageweave, netherweave. Do some research on your own realm and see what the prices are like. Wowwiki has an interesting guide on leveling tailoring and although I reckon you can skip some of its advice it does give you some ideas of just how much of each cloth you're likely to need.

Wow. Just... wow. Perfect example of how different servers have different economies, and factions for that matter. Wool is the most expensive (and least-supplied) cloth on all of my servers. There's usually 3-4 stacks at auction, the cheapest price on any of my servers is about 4g (vs. 2.5 gold/stack for Runecloth and Netherweave) and on my main server it sells for just under 7g/stack (and even then, my Auctioneer reads it's price at about 70% of norm) and it's gone so quickly there isn't any time for people to undercut.
The same 10 stacks that would cost you 6.5g would cost nearly 70g there. If you're on a server like this, it just isn't worth it for most people to buy it. It's not the best profit in the world to farm for money, but it's easy to farm for alts. Farming for a tailoring alt, I did about 5 stacks in half an hour. Excluding dailies, because I wouldn't waste that on wool, the only way I'm interested in making over 70g/hour (the same rate that would be required to keep up with the wool) is standing around town hawking gems, which gets boring fast.
If your server cooperated, absolutly it's quicker and easier. If it's a *****, then hit up Deadmines (even if you're horde) or the Dwarf base in the Barrens, or the quillboars... they all work.

I guess the answers here are great if you have a high level main but as has been said , Some servers are well messed up economy wise with all those power levelling trades the lower level stuff is at some crazy prices on my servers , i see loads of linen 50s + a stack a fair bit of silk and well over priced wool at the auction house , i prefer to farm stuff anyway even with my main as i guess i have a lucky streak as i always seem to get my bags full of greens and blues when farming cloth ,but i usually try and farm with my alts if the mobs are still green to me.
