I just bought this acrylic sweater...well the tag says 100% acrylic. i was wondering if it will shrink?


Question:i kinda hope it shrinks cuz it a little big. it says to wash in cold water but if i wash it in warm water and put it the the dryer.will it shrink?

Answers:
yes it will shrink.. wash it in cold water and put it on a no heat dry cycle, that should shrink it a little but not too much


Acrylic does not usually shrink, if it does it would be barely noticeable.
it might shrink but acrylic usually doesnt, it might melt.
oh never ever wash it in hot water- it will definitely shrink. my suggestion is washing in tepid water by hand and then drying on a towel on a flat surface in shade..
