Homemade Woolwash Recipe
Grate 2 bars of pure Castile soap with a cheese grater, to equal approximately 2 cups of soap flakes. Add 4 cups of boiling water and whisk until soap is dissolved. Add 1 cup of rubbing alcohol and 1 Tbsp. of essential oil- Lavendar and Cedar are especially pleasant. Whisk until blended. Pour into containers and let sit 24 hours. It will gel up. To use, scoop out 1 Tbsp. and swish in warm water for your woollies. Simple and cheap.
