As I noted in the last post - the 'clean' wash water soon gets rapidly less so (but I didn't capture this in the pictures).  I've been running another load through the process today and have the following evidence that there is rather a lot of 'dirt/dust/etc' in the wool:

not the ideal bath water for bathing!!

In with the dirt is the emulsified lanolin and some other oils that I forget the name of - all go down the drain, and a flushed from the wool in the next two rinses.
