Well, I've never tried it myself either, but It made sense to me.
Too often, companies take the Lannolin oil out of the wool with harsh chemicals and then weave it into fabric, and this is probably one reason why a lot of woolens are as itchy and scratchy as they are. Lannolin oil will probably help with the 'scale' and thus make it less itchy. Wool is wool, however, and there is always a chance that you might only reduce the 'itchiness' slightly.
Lannolin oil is a natural component of wool, and taking it out doesn't make much sense to me.
