Crisis- My bathroom smelled sheep


Picture 341, originally uploaded by Ove and Lucia.

I bought a bag of unwashed wool at local auction, and I am very happy with the quality and shape of the wool, which can suit my dolls perfectly. The only headache I have now is how to get rid of the very strong sheep smell from the wool.

I've washed the wool thoroughly in cold water, so they are pretty clean now. I also tried green soap to get rid of the smell. I don't want to felt it, so I only used cold water and soap, as Simmy taught me earlier. It work fine as long as the wool is wet. As it's getting dried now, the sheep smell is back. Now there is a very unpleasant smell of sheep and soap in my bathroom, also on my fingers. Does anyone know how to get rid of the sheep smell from wool? A lil help will be really appreciated :) thank you.

Jeg kjøpte disse uvasket ull fra QXL, og jeg er veldig glad med kvalitetet av ull. Problemet er ullet luktet lamb. Jeg har prøvd med soap og kaldt vann, men ullet luktet kombinasjon av soap og lamb nå. Hvordan kan jeg vaske det ubehagelige luktning bort? Kan noen tippe meg? Tusen takk :)
