Ham if I read Steve's fist post correctly he washed the kilt in water but not in the washing machine, but in the bath tub. Using the bath tub allows for very gentle agitation of the water.

Drain the water and gently squeeze the water out and then refill the tub until the water comes out clean

I hope I have not misread Steve's post.
