      So I got my 102TG the other day and it made me remember how soft UHF's are when I first get them.
      But after a wash they don't feel quite as plush, is there anyway to get that feel again after washing?
      Maybe it's a low tumble dry instead of hang drying like I've been doing?

        That could work…....

          I've loved the softness of my 101, and the sizing was such I tumble dried it on normal heat. The 130 I didn't want to lose any sleeve length, so it's been hung dry and feels a little less soft. Long story short: I think you're onto something!

              Seems like that did the trick, now I know how to get my UHFs back to their blanket-soft state!

                Much shrinkage? Or maybe you've taken it out already? I'm eager to try myself..

                  I already washed it once before so I figured I got some shrinkage then.
                  Not sure on how it is now, I just washed cold and then dried on low heat until it was mostly dry.
                  I'll slip it on later and see if it feels any tighter.

                    Just a heads up @neph93 after trying it on I didn't get any noticeable shrinkage and the shirt feels a lot more plush now!

                      Thanks very much for taking the time to answer [emoji1417]

                      That's great news for my already snug 130 😉

                        I'm looking for a ribbed knit, crew neck wool sweater to keep me warm on the coldest of days.  I'm leaning towards Anderson Anderson.

                        Anyone else have any recommendations?

                            Where can I get a replacement button for my trusted IH-801? I accidentally spoiled mine while washing it today.. I know I can buy an unbranded through eBay but I prefer an Original one. Thanks

                                Honestly mate, go for the Anderson Anderson, you won't be disappointed. They're absolute beasts. Heavy, non-itchy knitwear masterpieces 😉
