Longer sweaters can be ironed with hot water between 70 and 80 degrees, and the sweaters can be changed back to their original state.But it should be noted that the hot water is too hot and it is easy to shrink the sweater smaller than it used to be.At the same time, the method of hanging and drying the sweater must be correct, otherwise the sweater will not be able to return to its original shape.If the cuffs and hem of the sweater are no longer elastic, you can just soak a certain part, use 40~50 degrees of hot water, soak for less than two hours and then take it out to dry, so that its stretchability can be restored.
