Just in case you find yourself in Sweden with a dirty kilt, then half an hour in a tub of 35 degree C water with about 25-30ml of COOPs fintvättmedel works just fine for woolen kilts. This is a liquid for clothes designed especially for wool and silk. It contains no enzymes or bleach. I had to rinse the kilt four or five times. What a difference it made to the colours! The kilt was dried out by just hanging it from the drying rail thingy I have in my bathroom. The pleats were not stitched together before washing and the dried kilt has kept its form very well, i.e., I can see all the pleats very clearly.
