I think you may be referring to the prohibition of mixing wool and linen within a single garment. The Hebrew word for this prohibition is "shatnez" or "shaatnez".

Shatnez (or Sh'atnez/Shaatnez) (שעטנז) is the Jewish law derived from the Torah that prohibits the wearing of a garment containing both interwoven wool and linen; any such fabric is referred to in Judaism as shatnez. The relevant parts of the Torah (Leviticus 19:19 and Deuteronomy 22:5, 22:9-11) prohibit the combining of various fabrics in one garment.

The reasons for this prohibition are not given in the Torah.

Flax plant fibers, once processed, spun, and woven, become linen fabric.
