Polly's Pointers Shrinking sweaters and craft tips
Reader asks if 100 percent non acrylic washable sweaters can be shrunk. Polly suggests alterations for a knitted garment instead of shrinking. She describes resewing a knitted dress with tissue to avoid needles slipping, using zigzag stitches, and trimming excess. Also offers belt turning tip and etiquette on sending obituary clippings with sympathy cards. Polly notes she will send a thank you coupon clipper if her column uses a reader's issue.
