You can operate it at home by yourself, but it's a little more troublesome.
The steps are as follows:
1. The ironing board is made of cardboard and sweaters that have not shrunk.
2. Put the sweater without shrinkage flat on the cardboard, and mark the key position on the cardboard with a pencil.
3. Connect the marks with a ruler, cut off the edge of the cardboard with scissors and stick it with tape to avoid scratching the sweater.
4. The sleeves should be cut separately, and the ironing board should be cut in the same way as above.
5. The ironing board is finished and put into the shrunk sweater. Let's start ironing, and the sweater should be made in a wet state.
6. While ironing, pulling is the most important step. Moderate force is enough.
7. The whole ironing process should be completed with a steam iron, and an iron that can touch steam at home is enough.
Matters needing attention
When drying clothes, lay them flat until they are 80% dry, then wrap your sleeves in a net bag and hang them on a bamboo pole to dry.
Avoid exposure to strong sunlight, otherwise it will destroy the molecular structure of wool.
Sweaters stretch and deform after washing, and can be restored to their original state by spraying them with an iron.
Question 2: How can clothes containing wool shrink back? Wool is a natural fiber with excellent wearability and is the most widely used animal hair fiber in textile products. However, due to people's insufficient understanding of wool fiber and some characteristics of wool itself, if wool is not properly protected, it is easy to follow the water. Method 1: Heat the shrunk sweater fiber with a steam iron, and then stretch it with both hands while it is hot. According to experience, due to the limited heating area of steam iron, in order to ensure uniform fiber stretching, sweaters are stretched locally, sectionally, sectionally and by heating. The fiber can't be stretched much at a time, so it needs to be heated and stretched repeatedly. Know the total length of stretching before stretching, so as to know the stretching length of each segment. After all stretching, we should measure the total length with a ruler. If the length is not enough, we can repeat it. Pay special attention not to oversize, and finally adjust it appropriately.
The operation should be carried out on the ironing table. At home, you can spread a blanket on the desktop. After all, it is best to heat, shape and cool with a camera.
Method 2: We can spread the sweater out first, put it on a flat thick paper board, then pull it to its original size, fix it with thumbtacks or tacks, then steam it above the sweater with a steam iron to make it fluffy, and then take off the thumbtacks when the clothes cool down, so that the sweater can return to its original size.
Remember that washing will not shrink in the following aspects.
Washing method
First, the water temperature should be around 35 degrees. When washing, gently squeeze it with your hands, and do not rub, knead or twist it with your hands. Never wash it with a washing machine.
Second, be sure to use neutral detergent. When in use, the ratio of water to detergent is generally 100: 3. Third, slowly add cold water during rinsing, so that the water temperature gradually drops to room temperature, and then rinse it clean.
Fourth, after washing, press the water out by hand, then wrap it in a dry cloth and press it again. You can also use a centrifugal dehydrator. Pay attention to wrap the sweater with cloth before putting it into the dehydrator; You can't dehydrate for too long, you can only dehydrate for 2 minutes at most.
5. After the sweater is washed and dehydrated, it should be spread out in a ventilated place to dry, and it should not be hung or exposed to the sun, so as to avoid the deformation of the sweater.
Question 3: How to restore the pure wool sweater to its original state after shrinking? In fact, there is no effective way, and the iron and stretching methods on the Internet are actually not easy to use, so I will give you four suggestions:
1。 If you like that sweater and it is still on sale, go and buy another one.
2。 In the future, I will buy a sweater of a larger size, and it will shrink just after washing. Don't buy a sweater that suits you and dry clean it every time. Search online and you'll know the inside story. It is best not to use it.
3。 If it shrinks, give it to someone younger than you. For example, I will give my wife my shrunk sweater, which is just right. She is still happy to wear my sweater every day.
4。 Give me extra points! ! ! !
Question 4: Can the shrunk sweater be recovered after washing? Repair the shrunk sweater:
One: steam ironing
The fibers of the shrunk sweater are heated with a steam iron, and then stretched with both hands while it is hot. According to experience, due to the limited heating area of steam iron, in order to ensure uniform fiber stretching, sweaters are stretched locally, sectionally, sectionally and by heating. The fiber can't be stretched much at a time, so it needs to be heated and stretched repeatedly. Know the total length of stretching before stretching, so as to know the stretching length of each segment. After all stretching, we should measure the total length with a ruler. If the length is not enough, we can repeat it. Pay special attention not to oversize, and finally adjust it appropriately. The operation should be carried out on the ironing table. At home, you can spread a blanket on the desktop. After all, it is best to heat, shape and cool with a camera.
Two: thick cardboard
There is a way to enlarge the shrinkage of sweaters after washing. The specific method is: cut it into the size and shape of the original sweater with thick cardboard (cardboard of home appliance packaging box), and it is best to polish the incision with sandpaper to avoid hooking the sweater. Put the sweater on the cardboard, fix the lower part with several hangers, then steam iron the sweater repeatedly at various parts with an electric iron, and take it off after it is completely cooled.
Third, send it to the dry cleaner.
As long as you take the clothes to the dry cleaner, dry clean them first, then find a special shelf 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 that of dry cleaning.
Question 5: How to restore the shrinkage of double-sided wool coat, you can try the following methods:
First, warm water+a small amount of household ammonia. First, add a spoonful of ammonia water to warm water, then soak the shrunk wool coat in water for ten minutes, then support it with a larger formwork under routine cleaning and dry it.
Second, use cooking methods. You can also wrap the wool coat with a clean towel and put it on the steamer. Remember to clean the steamer and don't let the oil smell on the steamer pollute the wool coat. Steam for ten minutes, take it out, then pull the wool coat back to its original size and dry it. It should be noted that the water temperature should be well controlled, and it is recommended not to exceed 70 degrees.
Third, send the clothes to the dry cleaner. Just take them to the dry cleaner, dry clean them first, then find a special shelf of the same model as the wool coat, hang the wool coat, and after high-temperature steam treatment, the wool coat can be restored to its original appearance.
Fourth, adopt the prototype of the mold. First, find a piece of thick cardboard and cut it into its original size and shape. It is best to sand the incision with sandpaper to avoid snagging the wool coat. Then wash and dry the wool coat and put it on this cardboard.
Question 6: How can the sweater be restored to its original size when it has shrunk? The specific method is as follows: first, add shampoo into the sweater with water of about 30 degrees Celsius, wash it, and wrap it in cloth for dehydration. Add a proper amount of water to the steamer and bring to a boil. Fold the washed sweater and put it in the steamer. After steaming 10 minutes or so, cease fire and take out the sweater. Cut a piece of cardboard (including two sleeves) the same size as the original sweater. It is best to stick tape on the incision to avoid scratching the clothes. Then put the sweater on cardboard, draw the corners, neckline and cuffs to the size of cardboard, and fix them with pins or clips. Individual parts can be pulled by hand. After cooling completely, take off the cardboard and lay the sweater flat in the shade to dry. It should be noted that the total length of the sweater and the length ratio of each part should be known before stretching, and it is not allowed to stretch too much at a time. Measure the total length with a ruler after pulling it all. If the length is not enough, it can be repeated.
The second method is suitable for sweaters with less shrinkage. Warm water is injected into the washbasin, a small amount of household ammonia is dripped, and then the sweater is immersed, and the soap components left on the wool will melt. Gently stretch the narrowed part with both hands at the same time, and then rinse it to dryness. When it is half dry, first open it by hand, straighten it, and iron it with an iron to restore its original size.
Cut it into the size and shape of the original sweater with thick cardboard (cardboard of home appliance packaging box), and it is best to polish the incision with sandpaper to avoid hooking the sweater. Put the sweater on the cardboard, fix the lower part with several hangers, then steam iron the sweater repeatedly at various parts with an electric iron, and take it off after it is completely cooled. Steam the washed sweater in a steamer for about 15 minutes, then take it out and stretch it to its original size by hand, and put it on the table to dry naturally. Saving money won't hurt the sweater.
Question 7: How to recover the shrunk sweater? Warm water is injected into the washbasin, a small amount of household ammonia is dripped, and then the sweater is immersed, and the soap components left on the wool will melt. Gently stretch the narrowed part with both hands at the same time, and then rinse it to dryness. When it is half dry, first open it by hand, straighten it, and iron it with an iron to restore its original size.
1. During normal cleaning, the more detergent, the more it can be avoided. The principle is to wash once. 2. Warm water+a small amount of household ammonia water = ammonia water. Naughty soap can be broken down into molecules after soaking the shrunk sweater. ※ ※ 3. Gently open the narrowed part of the baby sweater and rinse it clean. Please iron the sweater while setting it.
By the way, how to prevent shrinkage:
(1) First, the water temperature should be around 35 degrees. When washing, gently squeeze it with your hands, and do not rub, knead or twist it with your hands. Never wash it with a washing machine. Second, be sure to use neutral detergent. When in use, the ratio of water to detergent is generally 100: 3. Third, slowly add cold water during rinsing, so that the water temperature gradually drops to room temperature, and then rinse it clean. Fourth, after washing, press the water out by hand, then wrap it in a dry cloth and press it again. You can also use a centrifugal dehydrator. Pay attention to wrap the sweater with cloth before putting it into the dehydrator; Dehydration doesn't take long, and it can only take 2 minutes at most. 5. After the sweater is washed and dehydrated, it should be spread out in a ventilated place to dry, and it should not be hung or exposed to the sun, so as to avoid the deformation of the sweater. I hope I can help you.
Question 8: How to deal with the shrinkage of wool coat after washing? The fiber structure of wool clothes is looser than other fabrics, so it is easy to deform. This is the problem of the silk clothes themselves. Mild deformation can be recovered by ironing and stretching, while severe deformation cannot be recovered.
Animal hair is protein fiber, which is easy to shrink. It should be sent to a professional washing shop for dry cleaning.
When the wool fabric becomes dirty, it must be washed immediately to avoid leaving traces. The longer the stain stays on it, the less likely it is to be washed off; And after a long time, stains will penetrate into the fibers, and it is inevitable to rub hard when cleaning, which is more likely to cause damage to clothes.
For local slight stains, try to gently wipe the wool surface with a towel dipped in neutral laundry detergent or special detergent solution for silk cotton. After removing the stain, dip a clean towel in water and remove the detergent residue in the same way. Can be repeated several times. Try not to soak the leather board during operation, and dry it in the shade in time.
If it can be cleaned, pay attention to the following points during daily cleaning:
1, if washing, use alkali-resistant, neutral and enzyme-free detergent, especially wool detergent. If you use a washing machine, you should use a drum washing machine and choose a soft program. If you wash it by hand, it is best to rub it gently, not with a washboard;
2. Wool fabric will shrink and deform in water solution above 30 degrees. Gu clothes should be soaked in cold water for a short time, and the washing temperature should not exceed 40 degrees. Gently rub and wash, not rub hard. Machine washing must use laundry bags, choose light gear. Dark colors generally fade easily.
3. Squeeze and wash, avoid wringing, squeeze out water, spread it evenly and dry it in the shade or fold it in the shade; Wet plastic surgery or semi-dry plastic surgery can remove wrinkles and avoid sun exposure;
4. Softening agents should be used to keep soft hand feeling and antistatic performance.
5. Do not use chlorine-containing bleaching solution, but use oxygen-containing color to bleach.
Attention should be paid to when storing:
1, avoid contact with sharp, rough and strongly alkaline articles;
2. Select a cool and ventilated place to cool down and dry before collecting;
3. During the collection, the cabinet should be opened regularly, ventilated and kept dry;
4, high temperature and humid season, should be aired several times to prevent mildew.
Question 9: What should I do if the sweater shrinks after washing? The quality problem of sweaters is that sweaters shrink and recover skillfully.
Method 1: wrap the washed and shrunk woolen sweater with white cloth, put it in a steamer and steam it with warm fire 10 minute; 2) Take out the sweater, hold the shoulder line of the sweater, gently shake it, pull it back to its original state, and put it in a ventilated place to dry in the shade.
Method 2: When the sweater is half dry (never completely dry), straighten the wrinkled part of the sweater as much as possible, turn on the top grade (hot air) of the hair dryer, and blow it back and forth to both sides of the sweater. After seeing that the wrinkles are basically smoothed (at this time, the blown part of the sweater is basically dry), you can take it outside to cool.
Sweater shrinkage treatment method
1。 If it is washed by a washing machine, soak it in warm water and iron it. Put more washing powder when you put the washing machine in the future.
2。 If it is hand-washed, warm water is injected into the washbasin, a small amount of household ammonia is dripped, and then the sweater is soaked, and the soap left on the wool will dissolve. Gently stretch the narrowed part with both hands at the same time, and then rinse it to dryness. When it is half dry, first open it by hand and make it into its original shape; Press it with an iron again, and it will be back to its original size.
3。 In order to prevent sweaters from shrinking, the principle of washing sweaters is that the earlier the better. Generally speaking, the less laundry detergent is used, the easier it is for sweaters to shrink, so it's best to add more laundry detergent to prevent sweaters from getting smaller. After washing and dehydration, clothes can be placed on a dry net or curtain to be flattened and shaped. When it is slightly dry, hang it on a hanger and find a ventilated and cool place to dry. In addition, before the fine wool is aired, a layer of towel or bath towel can be rolled on the hanger to prevent deformation.
4。 Sweaters dried after washing will generally shrink and become smaller, while those dried with water will lengthen and become larger. The way not to shrink after washing is to put the spun sweater on the towel quilt, flatten it, let it stand, and hang it up for a day or two to dry, so that the sweater will not shrink. The method of not stretching after washing is to put the spun sweater in the net pocket, and it is best to set it before putting it, and then fold it before putting it in.
Question 10: how to recover the sweater shrinkage? Three ways to solve the sweater shrinkage. How to recover the sweater shrinkage?
1. Fill the sink with warm water. Add at least 1 quart (1 liter) of warm water to the washing tank or bucket.
Please note that knitted clothes, such as cotton, wool and cashmere, are more suitable for this method than clothes with dense fabrics such as silk, rayon and polyester fiber.
The water temperature should be about the same as the room temperature, or higher. Do not use overheated or supercooled water.
2. Mix with baby shampoo or conditioner. Every 1 quart (1 liter) of water is mixed with about 1 tablespoon (15ml) of baby shampoo or mild conditioner, and the mixture is stirred until the water has a smooth soap consistency. [ 1]
Baby shampoo and conditioner can relax the fibers of shrunk clothes. Because fibers are loose, they become easier to stretch and manipulate, which means you can stretch your clothes back to the right size.
3. Soak clothes in soapy water. Immerse shrink clothing in soap solution to ensure complete coverage.
Soak for about 30 minutes.
If necessary, you can start to stretch gently when the clothes are wet, but this is not absolutely necessary.
4. wring it out. Take the clothes out of the soap solution, knead them into a ball, squeeze them hard and wring out the excess water. [2]
Don't wash clothes. Soapy water can constantly relax the fibers of clothes, which is beneficial to your work of stretching and reshaping clothes.
5. Put the clothes between two towels to squeeze out excess water. Lay a big towel flat and put clothes on it. Gradually roll up the towel and the clothes inside.
Put the clothes on the towel for about 10 minutes. It will still be a little wet when it is finished, but it is not wet anymore.
6. Spread the clothes and fix the position. Unfold the towel and transfer the clothes to another flat dry towel. Gently stretch the clothes to restore them to the proper shape, and fix the clothes by hanging heavy objects on the edges of the clothes.
The size and shape of your clothes must be measured more accurately. You can draw the outline of a dress of similar size on a large piece of parchment for reference. Then put the shrunk clothes you want to restore on the outline map and stretch them to the corresponding marks.
If you have difficulty stretching your clothes, it may be because it is still stiff. Using a steam iron can make clothes easier to handle.
Weights that help stretch clothes can include paperweights, books and coffee cups.
If you don't have anything heavy around you, you can put wet clothes and towels together instead.
7. Let the clothes dry naturally. Spread out the wet clothes and let them dry naturally until there is no residual moisture.
If you pin clothes and towels together instead of hanging heavy things. You can hang clothes on a hanger and let them hang in a sunny and dry place to dry. Gravity can help clothes stretch further.
If this method is effective but not obvious, it can be repeated several times until the clothes are fully stretched.
