Do all baatis shrink? macawiis?

Post by BlackVelvet »

Or is it a quality thing? Or is it how you wash it?


One time I put some in a dryer and they shrunk up to just under the knee :lol:


But seriously though, what's the deal?

I put macawiis in there but I've never paid attention to it one way or the other, I just assume they're made from the same material.

Yes according to google, you're not supposed to wash cotton in hot water. Now it all adds up
