Is there anyway to fix this? I know if you put a sweater in the dryer it shrinks, but will it shrink too much?

I've got a lot of wool sweaters that have just stretched out over time from use, and most of them are now too big for me to wear.

Any advice, specifically from the women?

put it in the dryer for a few mintutes at a time of you're afraid it will shrink too much. Maybe have them dry cleaned. Or go buy you some more.

dry cleaning them hasn't helped at all.

I guess I"ll try that dryer method, even though I'll have to go down to the laundromat

if you really want to closely control how they much shrink, use a blow-dryer
