Lovely jumpers - Comfort or not?

I use Woolite and never use fabric conditioner - can't stand the synthetic smell. I would dry outside draped over a clothes airer . Mind you, my machine has a hand washing programme which washes silk, cashmere, wool absolutely fine, so that's not what you want to hear. Can't stand all that rinsing!

Its handwashing lovely jumpers time again (I don't wear jumpers in summer at all) and I hate the whole business of handwashing and then laying it flat on a towel on the spare bed for days but the thing I hate most is the smell of Fabric Conditioner. It seems to go all over the house. Do you always use this on lovely jumpers or just the gentle liquid detergent and rinse well? I'd be glad to know your whole lovely jumper washing procedure but not the washing machine ones. I don't want to put them in there.
