Mintyfresh I just used a wee bit of my normal cheap shampoo last time and it worked well.  The load smells good too!]]> Sat, 23 Jul 2011 15:13:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1366366&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1366366 <![CDATA[Alternatives to wool wash : I have those washing balls, darnit,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1365341&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1365341 Author: Mintyfresh

I have those washing balls, darnit, have forgotten what they're called but they're white with blue foam rings and they last for ages. They're also really gentle so can be used for wool.

Otherwise I use a tiny bit of a gentle shampoo - my mum recommended that and she is a baby knitwear designer so I trust her on everything wool related. ]]> Wed, 20 Jul 2011 20:45:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1365341&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1365341 <![CDATA[Alternatives to wool wash : the cleaning lady on aussie tv...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1364826&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1364826 Author: InthemiddleMummy

the cleaning lady on aussie tv says a few drops of cheap shampoo is the best thing for wool. I cant remeber her name. she had a show on tv for a while with lotsa tips and a few books and magazine articles.]]> Tue, 19 Jul 2011 19:39:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1364826&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1364826 <![CDATA[Alternatives to wool wash : Yay!

Yay!  Thanks.  I'll give that a go.  I like the sounds of not having to fork out for wool wash (even though I love the smell!).]]> Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:23:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1355027&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1355027 <![CDATA[Alternatives to wool wash : Nup, I just use normal washing...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39727&PID=1355020&title=alternatives-to-wool-wash#1355020 Author: AandCsmum

Wow!  That's nice and easy.  Do you use a washing powder in the wash cycle and then add the vinegar or is the vinegar it?  And do you find everything stays soft or do you need to add lanolin occasionally (that's something I've picked up by googling so not sure whether it's necessary)?

Does anyone make their own?  Or use something other than a supermarket bought wool wash?
