How can I make a 100% cotton shirt shrink without using the dryer?
I bought a thermal/waffle shirt made of 100% cotton but it says "Hand wash and line dry only." Dry cleaning is ok too. It is a tad too big and I was planning on putting it in the dryer to shrink it just a bit. It has some markings on it that will surely melt in the dryer. What can I do?

100% cotton - hand wash only??????Must be the markings on it? I was going to answer hot wash and dry. Return for correct size.

im pretty sure washing it in hot water helps it to shrink, but i dont know if it works only when paired with the dryer, or if line drying will work too. its worth a try.
