Kookaburra from Riv. Best stuff ever, the lanolin keeps the wool soft and it
doesn't smell too bad.

Seems to me you're related to someone who knows more about this than us
knuckleheads. Listen to your expert!

Subject: [RBW] Slightly OT: Washing Wool Knickers
It's an amazing day. 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?
