One way to shrink cotton fabric is by boiling it. Check the tag to make sure that the fabric is 100% cotton. Then, fill a large pot with water, leaving enough room to put your fabric in the water without overflowing the pot, and bring the water to a boil. Carefully submerge the fabric in the water, and let it soak for 5 minutes, using a wooden spoon to make sure the fabric is all the way in the water. Remove the fabric from the water and place it directly into the dryer. Turn the dryer on the highest setting to complete the shrinking process.
