Is this cotton cover pre shrunk, or will it shrink in the dryer?

I washed the coverlet and did not dry, and it didn't shrink. Air drying is recommended on this type of material.

I washed and dryed it and it is still about the same size. I've been very happy with it.

The cover is actually not pre shrunk, but as long as you use cold water and low heat dryer then it won't shrink. It also over cut as its 92 inches long not 90 so in case it shrink.

This has held up nicely. No issues with shrinking. I wash normal cycle and dry with low heat setting on dryer and no issues.

hi its me again, i saw the other answer, hers has shrunk cause she has used the dryer, this is wool and under no circumstances should it go in the dryer or it will shrink, they do not shrink if you wash on 30 and just hang to dry

It measures the shrinkage size listed in the description. I just received it last week so I haven't washed it. It's a little thin but it gets the job done and it's affordable.

It can be removed. It's a little tricky the first time. I recommend using the manual instructions the first time. After that it's easy. I machine wash mine on gentle or hand wash even though the manual says not to machine wash. The fabric is still in great condition and I didn't have a shrinking problem even with using the dryer.

It is cotton, so there is some shrinkage, but it is commercially made, so not a lot

I believe so, I usually shrink it down a little once my hair dryer is out to fit in the cabinet. I haven't removed all the items in a while.

It's 100 percent cotton to it can be out in the washing machine. I bought a king size for a queen bed though. That way if it shrank it wouldn't be too small

Yes. It is cotton and has a long zipper on the long side so that it can be removed and washed. I was mine with my sheets in hot water and it has never shrunk ang is easy to put back on.

I dry mine but not on high. I didn't notice any shrinkage at all. Hope that's helpful to you.

yes they shrink but only the way that your denim jeans would. it's a tighter fit right after they come out of the dryer but much like our jeans, they tend to stretch out with consistent use until they're thrown in to the wash again. I was mine about once a week (we have 2 so we alternate them!)

I washed it in cold water and dried it on the medium heat setting, and it shrunk a little. I am not sure how much it shrunk.. maybe an inch? It seems to stretch back out a bit - like jeans that shrink, but stretch out again after you wear them.

It fits true to size and if it does shrink, it is very minimal. I throw it in the dryer and it also gets softer the more you wash it. It's a great shirt you will love it!

When purchasing anything that is cotton ALWAYS order larger....cotton will shrink every time you wash and dry it...does not matter if they claim it is preshrunk. At least this is a blend so it will not shrink as bad as 100% cotton items.

It does shrink, but you want to put it in the dryer AFTER you sew. This way the dryer heat will melt the little holes made by your sewing needle back together. I love this fabric. I have used it for homemade pullups. It is quite water proof. If my kid ever has a leak is around the leg holes or up the top. Never through the fabric. Those pullups have been abused, washed, dried and are still doing great.
