In other words, what makes it shrink or stretch? Many fabrics, by virtue of their fiber- content, weave and the finishing treat ment given them, have . a certain amount of poten t i a I shrinkage. Wool fibers, for example, are extremely sensitive to high temperatures. The weave of a fabric is responsible for. the greatest shrinkage factor. Most woolens today are pre-shrunk. But even so, your cleaner must take ! great care to determine and main tain as far as possible a garment's original size and shape. Irepe weaves have a marked ten dency to shrink or stretch. The crepe effect is formed by tightly twisted threads running in one direction. How much a crepe fabric will shrink or stretch depends on whether the fibers have been over stretched during the finishing pro cess. If overstretched the fabric is almost certain to shrink. If too little stretching has taken place to give a heavy creped effect, the fabric will most likely stretch from ordinary wear and cleaning. Sizing a garment is one of the many "extras" in our cleaning service. We try to return every article you send us thoroughly cleaned and "sized to its proper measurements. For extra care and extra value at no extra cost, send your cleaning to BIG Y CLEANERS, 1928 Table Rock Road. Phone SP 3-1919. We pickup and deliv er. S&H Green Stamps- adv.
