Step 3Pre-shrink Everything

Pre-shrink Everything
When mixing materials like wool, cotton, goat/horse (hair interfacing), and animal skins, it is incredibly important to PRE-SHRINK EVERYTHING.  Things will shrink at different rates when laundered and you don't want to have a garment like this pull funny after the first time it is washed. 

Wash everything cotton in warm water, dry on a warm to hot setting to pre-shrink.

Hair Canvas also needs to be pre-shrunk.  Wet the fabric down with water using a spray bottle or sponge and iron on a high temp until dry.
