Hi!  I'm not exactly sure if this will help you but I just washed some
roving that was like that.  It was so sticky that I could not stand it.  I
put it in a lingerie bag(net bag)and washed it in the laundrey room sink
with lots of hot water and some laundrey soap.  Of course I filled the sink
up first and then put the bag in.  Let it soak for 20 minutes to 30 and
drained the water.  Then I filled the sink up with hot water again and put
the roving back in to rinse.  I put it in the washer just to spin out and
then spread it out on a blanket in my guest room to dry.  You would have
laughed to see the rovin looping all over the blanket.  It came out fine and
is very nice to spin now.  I did do a small amount first as a test and after
that was okay, did the rest.
