Spyro the Dragon Ugly Christmas Sweater

How did the sweater shrink? Did you accidentally put it in the dryer on “high”? Does it look like the actual z-twist or s-twist (the individual threads of the yarn) look like they’re all fuzzy and tight? Because it may be almost impossible to make the original size again. You can make it a smaller version though. If it looks salvageable, you can take it to the cleaners.
