  • Recently received a fitted hat (7 1/2) as a gift and it’s too big. How can I shrink it so it fits comfortably?

    Posted by admin on February 3rd, 2010 and filed under fitted hat | 2 Comments »

    Do you guys know how I can do this?

    30% Wool

    70% Acrylic

    Not sure if that’s going to help or not.

    Thank you.

    Not without ruining it completely. You could boil it in water to shrink it but the end result will not be a happy one. Acrylic does not shrink easily. Maybe sew a sweat band into it ?

      get a paper towel or two and roll them into the inside band of the hat. I did this with a stetson hat I got as a gift. It works!
