Restore a shrunken sweater to its original size. Fill a sink with warm water and a cap full of baby shampoo and swish. Lay the sweater on top of the water and let it sink undisturbed. Submerge the sweater and soak for 15 minutes. Remove the sweater without wringing and set it in a container. Drain the sink and refill with clear water. Repeat the process. Roll it in a bath towel to remove excess water. Lay the sweater on another dry towel. Continue to gently reshape it until it dries.
