One hump or two? by

How do you all wash your wools? I wash EVERYTHING before putting it together and when I'm finished -- even though I wash my hands before I pick up my knitting, it's amazing how much dirt / oil comes out of them when they're washed. I have always handwashed -- soaked in Woolite, rolled it in a...
