Simple steps for washing alpaca wool
- Shake as much earth and grass out and pick out any leaves.
- Get two basins of water.
- Fill one basin with warm-to-hot water and regular laundry liquid which is gentle on the fibre.
- Put the fibre in the water, push it down (don’t agitate it too much!), and let the fibre soak for 20–30 minutes.
- Fill the other basin with clean warm water. Let the fibre soak in that for 20–30 minutes. Repeat Steps 3–4 if you feel the fibre is still dirty.
- Gently squeeze out any excess water and let it dry on a mesh surface.
- Once dry, brush or comb the fibres repeatedly until separated and fluffy.
- It is now ready for felting and dyeing.
