Thanks for the information! I was mainly basing the Woolite advice on what others had told me, but after your last article on Woolite I posted a follow-up questioning the advice (http://www.knickersblog.com/?p=808). I forgot to edit the original article, so i'll be sure to add to that now with your expert advice! Thanks! -Danae Hi Beauty Brains!
