How do you wash interlock longies?

You can always hand-wash, then put them in the washer for the spin-only.  I have a wool cycle, so I use that for all my woolies.  I use Kookaburra woolwash.  It has directions for machine washing, so I figure it can't be too lanolin-rich to use on occasion.

I wash mine in my FLer on the warm/warm handwash cycle in ecover delicate wash (or something like that).  I lay them flat to dry on a towel on the floor under a ceiling fan and they usually dry overnight.  I then dry-lanolize in the wetzone only.  HTH!

I think the big thing is to not agitate them too much, so if you have a very gentle gentle cycle, I'd guess you'd be okay.  Otherwise, do what Christine said and wash in the sink and spin dry in the washer.

Yes, with the solid lanolin you do just what you said.  I made kind of a mess the first couple times, but then got the hang of how much I needed to use.  I think with the spray, you also want to do it after the longies dry (but I haven't used ours yet).

Well now I'm scared!  I wouldn't want you to take my advice and ruin them!  All I know is it works for me in my FLer.

I just wash mine like my knits-- by hand in the sink with wool wash. I actually found it to be more work to machine wash them, because then I had to do an extra step to lanolize (the spray wasn't enough for my kiddo; I just use my spray as a little extra boost between washings now). Mine usually dry overnight, but I don't live in a humid climate. Let us know how it works out with your washer!

Thanks. The ones I handwashed did dry in about a day, but it was nice out and I had them on my screened porch. They feel and smell like they need some lanolin, so I'm going to try the spray and see how that works.

I have to wash diapers today and all my wool could really use a rinsing at least, so I think I'm going to just run them through a cool rinse cycle in my washer. I'm sure they'll be fine. I accidentally washed one of my soakers with my diapers once (and I used a little bleach)! This shouldn't be a problem!
