Wool sweaters are a common clothing. Wool sweaters have a good warmth effect and are soft and lightweight to wear. They are the best choice for many people. However, cleaning of wool sweaters is troublesome. They cannot be washed like normal clothes. They must be washed separately and use the unique cleaning agent of the wool sweater, so that the wool sweater will not shrink after washing. Shrinking after washing is the most troublesome problem for people. So what should I do if the wool sweater shrinks?
It is a considerable expense to go to a dry cleaner to clean your wool sweaters every time, and the dry cleaner exposed on TV is not hygienic. Therefore, it is necessary to master some methods to clean your wool sweaters. So what should I do if my wool sweaters shrink when I cleaned at home? Here are three solutions:
1. Steam ironing, shrink-shrinkable sweater fibers are heated with a steam iron, and then use both hands to lengthen the fibers while they are hot. You can apply a white cloth, spray water, and iron it in the medium temperature. The water temperature is best to be around 35 degrees. You should squeeze it gently with your hands when washing, and do not rub, knead or twist it with your hands. Never use a washing machine to wash. You must use neutral detergent. When using it, the ratio of water to detergent is generally 100:3. When rinsing, add cold water slowly to make the water temperature gradually drop to room temperature, and then rinse it clean. After washing, first press with your hands to press the moisture out, then wrap it with a dry cloth to press it. You can also use a centrifugal dehydrator. Be careful to wrap the wool sweater in cloth before putting it in the dehydrator; it cannot be dehydrated for too long, it can only be dehydrated for 2 minutes at most. After washing and dehydration, the wool sweater should be placed in a ventilated place to dry, and do not hang or expose it to the sun to avoid deforming the wool sweater.
2. Thick cardboard, cut it into the size and shape of the original sweater. It is best to polish the cutters with sandpaper to avoid catching the sweater. Put the sweater on cardboard, use a few more clothespins to fix it on the lower foot, and then use an electric iron to steam and iron each part of the sweater repeatedly, and then remove it after it is completely cooled.
3. Send it to the dry cleaner. Just take the clothes to the dry cleaner, dry clean first, then find a special rack of the same model as the clothes, hang the sweater, and after high-temperature steam treatment, the clothes can be restored to their original appearance, and the price is the same as dry cleaning.
The above introduces what to do if the wool sweater shrinks. I hope you can help you solve your worries through the introduction. When cleaning the wool sweater, you must use special detergents, and don’t waste any effort to wash in the washing machine. Be sure to wash with your hands so that the wool sweater will not shrink. After cleaning, drip water in a net pocket, and after it is no moisture, put it on the hanger, and then iron it smoothly with steam. This will complete the entire cleaning process.
