Okay, so I had a bit of an epiphany this morning: I jar fruits and vegetables from my garden, and local farms all summer, I also have lots of wool to wash. Why not use the water from the canner (as long as none of your jars leaked) to wash your wool. I just poured it into the sink, added my soap, and saved at least 2 gallons of water! Not to mention the energy that it would take to heat it!
