Q
will boiling shrink acrylic yarn
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Boiling will not typically shrink acrylic yarn in the same way it can affect natural fibers like wool. Acrylic is a synthetic polymer that is designed to be heat-resistant and maintain its shape. High temperatures can actually "kill" the yarn, making it lose its elasticity and become drapier, without substantial shrinkage. However, extreme heat can damage the integrity of the yarn, potentially leading to a brittle texture. It’s always best to follow the care instructions provided for the specific yarn you're using to avoid unintended results.
