@getlostthrifting: Sometimes thrifting is less about what you find and more about the time you’re willing to put in!!! What I did to fix this shrunken wool sweater: 1. Soaked in lukewarm water with hair conditioner for 1 hour. 2. Gently pressed out the water (no ringing). 3. Stretched the length first, then the sleeves while it was still wet. 4. Reshaped it and laid it flat to air dry on a towel for 24 hours! Shrunken wool isn't always ruined! #thrifting #thriftflip #thriftfinds #garmentcare #sustainablefashion
How did you do it? I have a wool cardigan w exactly this problem

It’s called blocking. People who knit and or crochet with wool do it to relax fibers.
