Wish it could be done with my neck!
Only works if it is shrinkable material such as cotton or wool and putting those in the dryer will shrink the complete blouse. Don’t tug on your neck while wearing, be careful how you put on and pull off (put a scarf over your head first to make top slide on or off) Do not hang these tops, fold taking care of the top portion making sure it is not pulled. Taking care of your turtlenecks (and purchasing good quality) you should never have this problem
Don’t do this with wool.
