In reference to cleaning, I note that Woolistics (Alex Clarke) recommends Ivory Snow for washing their wool jerseys. Supposedly Ivory Snow is pretty much pure soap flakes, with no detergents and enzymes like those found in leading detergents.
Sorry Jerry, Here is the NIH listing for Ivory Snow Laundry DETERGENT Powder from their household products database. 11 ingredients listed, the second being enzyme. All P&G claims is that it rinses out better than other products.
