Best Answer

Use a basin, bucket or container of cold or hot water and soap. Loosely put the sheep's wool in the water and let it soak for about an hour. Squeeze or spin dry. DO NOT AGITATE-agitation makes felt. A washing machine may be used if no agitation is done. Use only the fill, drain and spin cycles. If using an old wringer washing machine do not use the agitator but the rollers are fine to use. After soaking in soapy water one or more times and the water in the basin is fairly clear then repeat the process of soaking in clear water. squeezing or spinning dry after each soaking. Spread the fleece out to dry or hang to dry once you are satisfied with how clean it is. Keep the pets away as they love to play with it. Some people add essential oils or vinegar in the last rinsing.
