Canuck asked:

I have a team Canada hockey jersey that is just too big for me. It was a gift and has my favourte players name and number on it (#9 Kariya for who is interested). I am just wondering if there is anything that I can do to make it shrink a size. Thanks for the help.

    Yes, just wash in hot water until the desired size then dry warm or on delicate cycle only, becareful polyester shrinks pretty quick. Good Luck !

    Polyester is a synthetic yarn, and you cannot shrink it. The only way to get it to fit would be for you to grow bigger.
