Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

You are also going to chastise me. I tried that dryel stuff again.

I am pretty impressed with it's "cleaning" abilities. Working 6 days a week had made it impossible to get to the cleaners, and I am down to one pair of wools as I sent the rest in for tailoring.

I know it isn't ideal, but in a pinch it seems to work.

Once you get your wools "wet" you have permanently fucked them for life. There is no way they will ever iron out again.

Does rain ruin them? I haven't ever had them wrecked even when pretty soaked by rain. The dryell is steam. They don't even get damp..

They desperately needed a freshening.

:(

I have no interest in riding in a city period.

Not bad around the lakes or crocus hill at night. The river run is awesome too. But yes, you don't want to ride in traffic.

Dryell won't freshen shit then. You need a liquid to do that. Dry solvent preferred since the fabric won't soak ANY of it up. Once wool becomes wet/dry it has stretched and deformed.

They stopped smelling like sweaty balls and came out cleaner looking.

Thank you for the info though I didn't know wool was wrecked that bad after getting wet.

Steam is ok though?

It is actually the act of drying that creates the biggest problem. Rapidly changing the fiber structure.

Wool you can wash is pre-washed before making a garment. Wool you cannot is not. Meaning if the fibers change your garment changed.

I know it's just a bad idea to let it get wet in general. I have had some giant rough wool sweaters that were amazing in the rain. The stayed warm when wet, and almost had a natural rain repellant quality.

Irish wool I think?
