Cleaning a Tallis

[BarTopDancer]

I've been cleaning out my "old room" at my parents place, taking the stuff I never had room for, or forgot about even though I haven't lived at "home" for years. Anyways, I came across my Tallis in my old dresser. It's been in it's case, but it smells kinda musty, since it hasn't seen the inside of a Synagogue in 15 or so years. I've let it "air out" but it hasn't helped. I have Googled and everything I find says you can wash it on gentle cycle, but I'm afraid of it getting tangled. I don't really want to pay to dry clean it. I was thinking Dryell would be ok.

I'm hoping with our fairly large Jewish contingent that someone here would have some first hand experience with cleaning one. I'm not sure what it's made of, I just know it's not wool.
