Have just got dress from e bay . Wool boden ,it's lined so thought wd be ok. When put it on so so itchy ; were the seams of the lining meet and at the sleeves the wool is so so prickly ! I put on a tee shirt underneath : was still driven mad!! Guess that why they sold it as was worn once! Any ideas on how to make less itchy; I can try to add additional liningbut take ages! Wd a soak in conditioner work ; tho says dry clean ! I will never ever wear it if I can't stop the itch its horrid plus even when I touch it with arm when put it on it itched so much. I have other wool mix boden dressess but they are nothing like this !

It may not be the wool but a finishing chemical added to the material.

However, you can soften wool to make it less itchy
