Woolite is a strong detergent with the addition of oxidizing bleaches. (Non- chlorine) Your best bet is to use a mild shampoo, soak- not shake:-) and rinse in cold water with a couple of ounces of white vinegar. Role in a towel till almost dry then tumble cold for a few minutes to minimize wrinkles. Steam pressing is best.
