The only thing that comes to mind is the old trick of placing ice cubes along the line of the depression, waiting for it to completely melt, blot up the residue and then vacuum after it dries. This works on carpet (after you've moved the furniture, don'tcha know) but that may be because a lot of carpet these days is made from unnatural fibres. Note that there is no heat involved in this method -- I don't know if it would work on wool.
Good luck!

Hi Laurie,

Have you tried simply steaming the wool, and letting
it sit to dry, steam, dry... maybe even using a
toothbrush or other brush to gently bring up the nap a
bit? Steam on wool has done wonders for me.

One thing I've learned on this list is that there is
a vast amount of experience of ALL sorts among you.
Can anyone suggest a cure for the "pocket
depression"?

Thanks in advance,
Laurie
