But what causes it?" A Comparative Study on the Felting Propensity of Animal Fibers http://detextiles.com/files/AFIELTRAMIENTO%20EN%20DIFERENTES%20TIPOS%20DE%20PELOS.pdf "The felting propensity of different animal fibers, particularly alpaca and wool, has been examined. The Aachen felting test method was employed. 1 g of each type of fiber was soaked in 50 ml of wetting solution and agitated in a dyeing machine to make felt balls" Effect of Laundering on the Dimensional Stability and Distortion of Knitted Fabrics http://autexrj.com/cms/zalaczone_pliki/5-02-2.pdf "The main aim of this work was to systematically investigate the effect of the principal washing and drying variables on the dimensional stability and distortion of knitted fabrics.
