[AlpacaTalk] RE: fleece

 

<<<Marsha
I am so glad you started this conversation! I have been worried about washing my fiber. My sister tried washing some of her best fiber and she ended up with dreadlocks!! You couldn't pull the fiber apart! I like the comment using plastic totes? I don't have a wire basket, but I have those cloth mesh pop up laundry bags. I have some that are short and rectangular with cloth handles. I bet one of them would work great for putting the fleece in and lowering it into a large plastic tote and the lifting it out for the rinses! I will give it a try! I want to learn handspinning, but have been afraid to wash my fiber. Great tips everyone!

Thanks

Besides lack of time for the learning curve this has also been my hold up.   I likely would have long ago tackled learning to spin if I were not totally stumped (and frightened) by the cleaning process!
Great conversation!
