*Scream! Scream! Scream!*
I wouldn't even think about trying it. I have read about it in a few old threads, but I wouldn't put a tank in a dryer to be thrown around, and around, and around in scalding heat.
Eh, you should be able to very gently wash a wool kilt in your bathtub using wool safe soap.. There are plenty of threads on how to do that.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Ah, yes, found them. I'm going to do this instead. Thanks Ted!

Here's a couple of links to get you up and running:
The Wizard of BC's post in his thread "Military Kilt repairs" where he describes
washing a filthy old kilt
.
Barb T.'s tutorial on basting kilts for pressing
Hope those help get you started, or for anyone else that reads this thread.

From seeing other post you've made, you are really good with links
