It's hard to look buff when your "longsleeved" sweater only comes halfway down your arms.

well what they say to do for sweaters is to soak them in water, to relax the fibres of the sweater and then to hang them on a hanger still wet and that should put some of the body back into it

wool is kinda like Velcro its a really jaged Fiber, thats why it has such good insulating charecteristics, when you heat it to much though all the little hook like spikes contract and make the sweater shrink....

get a fat person to wear the shirt for you that way the fiber can streach evenly

I recomend some like this, he's meaty

Sucks dude, donate now...

I use to do laundry but now I don't, just take it to a laundry service, wash, iron, and fold. It's so convinient, drop off in the morning on the way to work and pick up at night! Perfect.

Here are some crises steps for you......

Step 1. Slap your self in the head for trying to do your own laundry, most dry cleaning places will do it or bring it to moms house.

Step 2. Bring your shrunken clothes to good will or just burn them its all the same you wont ever wear them again.

Step 3. go to value village and try looking for a suitable replacement for your shrunken gear.

Step 4. see step step 1. for getting yourself into this mess.

Step 5. now sport your new appointed gear if you did not find any gear at value i suggest a large *sheet or trench coat for clothing - *if choosing to wear a sheet rember a hat that is cone shaped and made from a white bed sheet is optional here and may cause issues for you.

They should really have an "intelligence test" for people that spend $500 on a sweater... but then I guess the people that would pass the test would be smart enough not to buy it

wash them again, and like try and stretch them over a long period of time (put on a hanger and wiegh the bottom down to stretch it down). and let them air dry in this manor. It wont work 100% but it will help and maybe even get them wearable again.

well...if you just bought the clothing and still have the receipts and it had a non-shrink guarantee on it, chances are you can return it.
otherwise, you can'd do anything.
sorry buddy.
you can try some of the "stretch" methofs people have been prescribing, but I doubt they'll work too well.

Yeah dude, drop of laundry service is the best... no hassle, no need to sort, arrange for hot/cold/white/colors... no wasting of time. It's great, only costs me about $10 bucks for a laundry every two weeks. Sweet!!!!!
