New Year. New Wool Washing Part 1

Step 1 is to SOAK the wool to get rid of a lot of the dirt. This is prior to any detergents.

Thank you for my first lesson! I've never thought that the wool can be so dirty).

Indeed. And I have had worse. The sheep live on dusty pastors and in dusty barns without a bath. You are its first bath ever!

I never thought of kitty litter containers. Great idea!

Thanks. Was for necessity when I started washing fleece. I used to have only one utility sink. So, improvised and used the pails in the process. Hope this helps as you wash fleece.
