Hey Guys,
I have a few old sheep skins that I have used for various projects. I have lined the top of a quiver with a piece, made several silencers, that kind of stuff. I have one whole one left and it is filthy!
I have a project or two I would like to use it for but it's way too dirty. Anyone have any idea how to clean it? I thought about just throwing it in the washing machine but the hide wouldn't be soft anymore and who knows about shrinkage.
Advice?

You can "break" the skin on a coner of something. should soften back up - reall y not sure of the washing machine idea. Might need some sort of bacterail killin soap and maybe not the washer?
Hand wash with woollite hand pull and stretch every few hours as it drys
Sounds good guys. Cold water, right?
