Fitted baseball cap
In order to shrink a fitted baseball cap, you will need the following materials:
-A pot or a bowl that is big enough to fit the baseball cap
-Water
-A stove or a microwave
-A towel
Instructions:

2. Next, put the wet baseball cap in the pot or bowl.
3. Then, put the pot or bowl on the stove or microwave and heat it up until the water starts boiling. Boil for about three minutes.
4. After three minutes, take the pot or bowl off of the heat and let it cool down for a few minutes.
5. Once it is cool enough to touch, take the baseball cap out of the pot or bowl and try it on. If it is too big, repeat steps 3-5.
6. If it fits well, then congratulations! You have successfully shrunk your baseball cap.
Bowl of hot water
You will need a bowl of hot water, a fitted baseball cap, and a mirror. Fill the bowl with as hot of water as you can stand. It should be hot enough to shrink the fabric, but not so hot that it will damage the baseball cap or burn your skin. Place the fitted baseball cap in the water and let it soak for 3-5 minutes.
The baseball cap will start to shrink when it is in contact with the hot water. You can watch it in the mirror to see the changes happening. Once it has reached the desired size, remove it from the water and let it cool on a flat surface. The baseball cap will hold its new shape once it cooled down completely.
Bowl of cold water
You will need a bowl of cold water, a fitted baseball cap, and a towel. Fill the bowl with cold water and place the baseball cap in the water. Allow the cap to soak for 5-10 minutes. Remove the cap from the water and gently squeeze excess water from the hat. Place the baseball cap on your head and shape it to how you want it to fit. Use your hand to smooth down any wrinkles or bumps. Wet your fingertips and run them over the brim of the hat to help reshape it. Dry off your hands and take off the baseball cap. Place the towel over the crown of the hat and use your hand to pat down excess moisture. Use a hairdryer on a low setting to dry off any remaining moisture in the baseball cap. Place the baseball cap back on your head and enjoy your new, smaller fitted baseball cap!
The Shrinking Process
A fitted baseball cap is a baseball cap that has a tight fit. If you have a fitted baseball cap that is too big, you can shrink it. Shrinking a fitted baseball cap is not as difficult as you may think. There are a few things that you need to do in order to shrink your baseball cap the right way.
Place the baseball cap in the bowl of hot water for 1-2 minutes
Fill a bowl with hot water from the faucet. The water should be as hot as you can stand it without causing yourself discomfort. Place the baseball cap in the bowl of hot water for 1-2 minutes. This will cause the fibers in the fabric to loosen and the baseball cap to become pliable.
Remove the baseball cap from the hot water and place it in the bowl of cold water for 1-2 minutes
Once you’ve removed the baseball cap from the hot water, place it in the bowl of cold water for 1-2 minutes. This will help to stop the shrinking process and set the shape of the baseball cap.
Repeat steps 2.1 and 2.2 until the baseball cap is the desired size
To shrink a baseball cap, start by soaking it in hot water for 5 minutes. Then, put the cap on and use a hair dryer to shrink it even further. To get the best results, Keep the hair dryer about 6 inches away from the hat and move it around so you don’t overheat any one spot. Once the hat is shrunk to the desired size, remove it from your head and let it cool completely.
Drying the Baseball Cap
After you’ve shrunk your baseball cap in the washing machine, it’s time to properly dry it. Avoid using a clothes dryer, as the heat can damage the cap’s shape. Instead, lay the cap flat on a clean towel and let it air dry. Once the cap is dry, you can gently stretch it back into shape.
Remove the baseball cap from the cold water and place it on a towel
Once you have removed the baseball cap from the cold water, take it over to a towel. Place the baseball cap on the towel, making sure that the bill of the baseball cap is pointing up. Use your hands to grab each side of the baseball cap and twist it in opposite directions. Doing this will help to remove any excess water from your baseball cap.
Use a second towel to pat the baseball cap dry
Be sure to use a second towel to pat the baseball hat dry. Do not use a hairdryer on the baseball cap, as this can cause the fabric to damage. Place the baseball cap on your head and allow it to air dry for at least 15 minutes. If you are in a humid climate, it is best to let the baseball cap dry for at least 30 minutes.
Allow the baseball cap to air dry for 1-2 hours
Once you’ve removed the excess water from your baseball cap, it’s time to let it air dry. Do not put your baseball cap in the dryer, as this will cause the cap to shrink unevenly. Instead, simply let it air dry on a clothesline, over a drying rack, or on top of a towel. Depending on the climate and the thickness of the fabric, it can take anywhere from 1-2 hours for your baseball cap to completely air dry.
