Yes, the same techniques will totally work for your project! The “rule of thumb” is to expect about 30% shrinkage, but each sweater can be different (some may only shrink 15%, others as much as 40%).

I would like to make a felted wool ironing table. Can I prepare a piece of woven 100% wool fabric the same way you prepared the sweater by washing it in hot soapy water, rinse in cool water and dry in the dryer? If so, do you have any idea how much it will shrink?
Thanks. I hope it works.
