I admit I snagged this one from another group, but I do like the sound of it ..........
 
Odor Removal
 
"works on cat urine better than anything .... my friend told me about it after taking care of her father in his very late years of illness and incontinence.
I also use it to wash those "stinky" work clothes of my husband's as well... 
Listerine ...yep... put it in a sprayer ...full strength ... spray the area(s) where cats have been ... spray it "good" enough to make the area wet again ... let dry ... do not rinse ... order will be gone.
Put a couple of capfuls in with your laundry detergent to remove smells from soiled clothes ... great stuff that Listerine.
Even the generic brand works.
The yarn could be spayed worked in your hands till damp and then placed in a sunny spot to dry before using ... or wash the garment,  adding the Listerine at that time.
Good luck."
