Knit fabrics are usually manufactured under tension (stretching). Cotton knits especially
may relax or draw together if every bit of moisture is removed from them. It is best to take
them out of the dryer with a trace of moisture remaining, then stretch to shape. If items
shrink from overdrying, rewet them and dry properly.
Choose AUTOMATIC REGULAR/DELICATE or TIME DRY cycle.
Remove slightly damp to minimize ironing.
