Protein fiber scouring instructions:

To scour protein fibers fill a dye pot with lukewarm water and add your fibers. Add approximately 1 tsp. of Orvus Paste per pound of dry fibers. Slowly bring the temperature up to about 160° F and hold it there for about an hour stirring the fibers very gently every so often. Let the fibers cool in the pot and then rinse them gently with lukewarm water.
