I weighed out one pound of fleece and timed the work of washing it.
Over the course of a couple of days the pound was picked over, soaked,
rinsed, and put out to dry. (Rather like doing laundry, one works in
five minute increments.)
I found that cleaning a pound of fleece takes about an hour, all told.
