there is a product called Orvis Paste. buy at a farm supply store.bow hunters use it to get all body smells off their clothes. I use it to wash quilts. takes very little, makes
things so soft. they also use it to wash the lambs for show.
Oxiclean works wonders on old linens, etc. maybe it would also
help with this.--when you wash cotton yardage, cut a 3/4",45 degree angle off each corner. no raveling !
