Abstract
Different washes on different knitted fabric will provide different shrinkage trends. The
expectation on shrinkage for various apparel products will also be different. However, the effect
of shrinkage in garment is still ambiguous. As a result, analysis of shrinkage after different
washes can provide a more realistic study.
The purpose of this study was to analyze the shrinkage with commercial sewing threads in
woven fabric.
This study focused on following major objectives:
To study the effect of different washes on garment measurements;
To study the effect of washes on fabric shrinkage and it appearance.
