Retrospective Two - Shrink Polyester
This workshop (November 2011) was led by the talented Jan Tillet - she ably demonstrated the use of shrink polyester and here are some of the samples worked by our members. Enjoy!
A low shrinkage polyester fiber is produced by melt-spinning a polyester polymer under conditions of substantially simultaneous spinning, drawing, and heat treating, using carefully controlled conditions. Use the low shrinkage polyester yarn which you can buy from online dealers Fiberpartner for applications such as taupaulins, filtration, firehose & more.
