I guess I am sort of half fasting it with the link washing recomedings. I do use hot water, but I do scrub in the arm pit areas. I also use woolite but will try dawn whe I run out. IT is sort of working. My wool smells nice and I haven't lost a touch of color- I was afraid with the hot water. However, the armpits are a little faintly sweat smeliing, which isn't too bad with me to begin with.

How do other people wash their wool? Do they use a detergent or someother soap? Do tey try the soak in hot water like the link or a thorough scrubing? I found a store that carries the Dr. Bonners but it seems a bit expensive before I hear what other people say.
