11. How to control fabric shrinkage
. Shrinkage is the process in which a fabric becomes smaller than its original size, usually though the process of laundry.
. Causes
. For wool garments, shrinkage is due to scales on the fibers which heat, water and agitation cause to stick together.
. Other fabrics are stretched by mechanical forces during production, and can shrink slightly when heated (though to a lesser degree than wool).
.Some clothes are “pre-shrunk” to avoid this problem.
.Pre- Shrinking
. Pre-shirking is needed almost on all fabrics because most textile materials shrink when washed. However preshrinking can only reduce the residual shrinkage to a lower percentage, but cannot completely eliminate it.

12. Fabric Cleaning . Dry cleaning
. Dry cleaning is generally only used for only
used for oil stains. As it is a very stressful process
of the textile. Commercial dry cleaners should never
be used, as the chemicals used in the process are
too strong for old fabrics to consult a professional conservator.
. Steaming and ironing
. Steaming and ironing textiles should be done with caution as the heat may affect the viability of the fibers, More importantly.
