How to shrink a sweater when it gets bigger (give three examples in detail)
Stretching of knitted or crocheted sweaters is normal, but don't worry, because you can reduce the size again at any time. You can reduce the number of all or part of sweaters in several ways. After making it fit your body again, there are several ways to prevent it from shrinking.

Method 1: The whole sweater becomes shorter.

1, see how many sweaters you need to remodel. Wet the whole sweater with water to reduce hair. Sometimes you don't have to do this. You can only stretch certain areas, such as the neck and sleeves. In this case, please adjust the shape of the sweater by hand.

2. Immerse the sweater in water and dry it. Pour some warm water into the bucket. Immerse the sweater in water until it gets wet. Take the sweater out of the water. Press the sweater on the sink to dry. Don't squeeze the sweater dry. This is because the sweater may be damaged.

3. reshape the sweater. Put a sweater between the towels. Grasp the desired shape with your hands. Then dry the sweater.

4. Dry carefully. Please don't hang the modified sweater on it to dry. When you wear a sweater, your shoulders become uneven. Instead, fix it on a towel that uses a sweater. Then spread it in a safe place to dry. Dry the sweater and put it out of the reach of children or pets.

5. Wet the sweater in water. We need to take more drastic measures to reshape the whole sweater. First, wet the sweater with warm water. The amount of water sprayed will determine the shrinkage rate of the sweater. To make the sweater smaller, please completely immerse it in water and dry it. To shrink the sweater slightly, please spray water gently with a spray bottle until the sweater is soaked.

6. Put the sweater in the dryer. Shorten the whole sweater with a dryer. Wet the sweater in water and heat it in the dryer. If you want to reduce a lot of sweaters, you should set them to the highest temperature. Dry the sweater until it is completely dry. This sweater has shrunk by two sizes.

Method 2: Cut off a part of the sweater.

1, prepare a basin. You can only reduce the elasticity of the sweater, such as the neck and sleeves. First, test the invisible part of the sweater. This is because boiling water or hair dryer will affect the color. Boil water in a medium-sized pot. Then pour the water into the basin.

2. Wet the area to be cut with water. Immerse sleeves, cuffs and neck in water. Please wear protective gloves if the water is still hot. Be careful not to burn yourself in the process.

3. reshape the sweater. Pinch the part to be cut with your fingers and squeeze it hard. Continue until you get the size and shape you want.

It is best to raise the cuffs on the chest to reshape. The cuff is small, so if you pull it closer, you can see what you are doing. Spread it on a flat surface and operate it in a wide area (such as neck).

If the sweater is soaked, please put a towel under it to prevent the water from flowing out and deforming it.

4. Blow dry with a hair dryer. When finished, dry the sweater with a hair dryer. Due to the hot air and hot water, the newly captured shape is fixed and reduced to its original size.

This method requires hot air, so don't use the cold air of the hair dryer. First, set the strength of the blower to about. If the sweater doesn't dry quickly, change the river.

Method 3: Prevent stretching

1. Open the sweater instead of hanging it up. Don't hang up the sweater, but open it in the drawer. If you hang a sweater, part of it will stretch. The shoulder area becomes swollen. If possible, please open the sweater instead of hanging it up.

Be careful when you need to hang a sweater. If you must hang a sweater, please be very careful. Use a padded hanger to support it more firmly. This will help prevent the sweater from stretching. Fold the sweater and hang it on the crossbar under the hanger. The rod at the bottom is stronger and can prevent the sweater from stretching.

Cut the tissue roll and put it in the note under the hanger. This will prevent wrinkles.

Wash this sweater by hand. If possible, wash this sweater by hand. Wash your hands in cold water with a small amount of clothes softener and detergent. Rinse thoroughly to remove soapy water. Press the sweater down to dry. Don't knit sweaters. Fold the sweater in half, and then hang it on the crossbar under the hanger or hang it on the hanger to dry.
