Why can't Jews wear wool and linen mixed together?

There is nothing against wearing mixtures of cotton and linen for Jewish people.

However, there is a biblical prohibition called Sha'atnez prohibiting wearing clothes that contain a mixture of wooland linen.

Deuteronomy 22:11: Thou shalt not wear a garment of diverse sorts, as of woollen and linen together.
