FWIW, I just stumbled across this article about washing wool; it seems reasonably thoughtful:
https://www.knittersreview.com/how-to-clean-handknits/ That notwithstanding, again, for years without problems I've used my machine's Delicate cycle, including the full spin part, far longer than the 10 seconds the above article warns is the limit for good woolens. The article mentions earlier formulations of Woolite which might not have been as easy on wool as current ones.
