  • Has anyone had any luck shrinking the merino arm warmers? I've come to the conclusion mine are a size too big but it's to late to return them.

    Will they explode if I put them in a 60°C wash?

    Got a tumble dryer? I would start there. Moderate heat, couple of minutes, test fit, repeat until happy. Up the heat a bit if you aren't getting shrinkage.

    A high heat wash might be too destructive.

  • I've a washer/dryer in one, I never use the dryer part but I'll give that a shot.

    Should I be putting them in wet?

  • That won't work. I tumble dry mine exclusively and they don't shrink.

    You'd need to wash them hotter to shrink them.
