Re: wool (and other) care
On the subject of the many fine suggestions for removing
cat-urine odor from garb, I'd like to make a series of
comments. I will present them as statements of fact,
but I am not certain of the truth of all these statements.
I simply wish to present them for discussion.
There was no method for removing this odor in the Period.
Cloth was so expensive in the Period that most people
could not afford to discard it simply because of odor.
Cats were much less highly regarded in the Period than now.
If we wear garb without removing this odor from it,
we will gain added insight into Medieval attitudes
toward cats.
