It just somehow couldn't be cut. Eeegh, it's giving me shivers right now.

Blood letting the often scoffed at medical treatment, is facing a bit of a come back in modern medicine. It has been dicovered that blood letting helps in the treatment of infections. Especially chest infections. There have also been positive results with blood letting in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. (I'm not sure about type 1, as the report didn't mention type 1) And there is reason to believe that it may help in the fight of some cancers. And by 'positive results'. I mean tests conducted have shown that blood letting helps with insulin absorption but the trails are still at an early stage. And the cancer trails are at an even earlier stage.

@crazyviking24

I think another way to avoid vomiting from the odor is to actually soak the cloth in urine ahead of time and simply stick it in the hot water that you are using for the process. That way you are not actually stirring up urine/water. And apparently the odor isn't as bad.
@anne-droid7739

Very sensible! And that would bypass the need to wash out the fuller's earth, which must have been quite a chore. In one of the BBC historical farm series, they show the use of a mill to full the cloth. The water wheel drives a bunch of hammers, which beat the bejesus out of the fibers. It's interesting to see. I'm not sure which series it's in, but they are all quite good--Tudor Farm, Victorian Farm, Tales From The Green Valley, etc. If you are interested, they seem to be available right now, but certain episodes are routinely removed. An easy way to find them is to enter "Ruth Goodman" in the search box. Enjoy!

A few good rinses and a long airing will do it. Really, the stale pee is just a grosser version of household ammonia. I've actually used something worse. A few years ago I tried creating a medieval woad dye vat recipe. Woad was the only source of true blue and true green dyes in the middle ages in Europe. Woad is related to cabbage. It's fermented, dried, and then mixed with stale urine to create an anaerobic chemical reaction. The smell is incredible. Queen Elizabeth I forbade any woad dyeing within 5 miles of any of her palaces. I could only get woad extract so I had to mix it with bran and yeast to get the fermentation going. It might not have been as bad as full fermented woad, but I found out that one's sense of smell can shut down in self-defense. My blue yarn reeked to high heaven but I washed it in soap with lavender and mint and dried it in fresh air and most of the smell went away. A hint of odor lingered for months, then faded completely.
