Hey, #fabric, #FiberArts, & #Sewing peeps:

I just bought a couple of cotton shirts, & I have a question about shrinkage. Does cotton shrink •every time• it's washed/dryed? Or is there a point at which it's reached its max shrinkage & stays there?

Also, does it shrink preferentially in both directions (warp & weft)? Or does it shrink uniformly in all directions?

(To be clear, I bought them slightly oversized so they'd have some slop, so some shrinkage is fine.)
