wool processing
Wet cleaning method used to remove dirt and grease from wool. It often began before shearing, when sheep were washed. Wool was commonly washed in a cloth bundle in streams or near wells. If the natural lanolin content was to be preserved, dry cleaning was used instead, with dust beaten out by sticks and impurities removed by hand.
