I just found my old Woolrich wool knickers. I think these are early to mid 80's, so well over 20 years old. I bought them when they were discontinued and only used them a couple of times before my middle aged spread rendered them unwearable. I tired them on today and they fit again. I would like to clean them. They are 85% wool and 15% nylon and say dry clean only. My daughter says wash them by soaking in the tub with her super special wool cleaner (she weaves and knits and only works with wool). I wash all my riding clothes including my Wooly Warms on the delicate cycle in my front loading machine using Ivory Snow. Of course all washing is in cold water. Any opinions on the best approach?
