A wool blend coat has been designed not to shrink, based on the blend of the wool. However, you could wash the wool coat in hot water with maximum agitation, which affects the wool, but not the blend. Your results would be unpredictable.
You can not get it to shrink. If you wash somthing and you dont want it to shrink by putting it in a dryer then just hang it up some where and let it dry.
School blazers are commonly made of wool, wool-blend, or polyester fabric. Wool-blend blazers are durable and offer more warmth, while polyester blazers are lighter and often easier to care for. Wool is a classic choice that can provide both warmth and a tailored look.
When a wool sock and a cotton shirt are dried together in a dryer, the wool sock may shrink due to its natural properties, while the cotton shirt is less likely to shrink. The differential shrinkage is due to the differences in fiber composition and structure between wool and cotton materials.
This is not recommended, if it is acrylic felt the heat will soften the plastic fibers and things like lint will stick to it, this will happen even if there is nothing else in the dryer as lint from previous loads gets trapped in all those little holes, if you are using a nicer wool/ rayon blend or wool, your felt will shrink, how much depends on the wool content, better to let it air dry.

Heat insulation would be wool. Note that denim is normally made of cotton, or a cotton/polyester blend. None of them would be very good electrical insulation when wet.

A wool shirt will shrink more in the dryer compared to a cotton shirt. Wool is more prone to felting and shrinking when exposed to heat and agitation, whereas cotton tends to be more resistant to shrinkage. It is important to always check the care label instructions before laundering any garment to prevent shrinkage.
Wool socks, like all wool clothing will shrink when washed. However due to the blended wool it is unlikely that wool socks will shrink much.
A wool blend refers to a textile that combines wool with other fibers, such as synthetic materials (like polyester) or natural fibers (like cotton or cashmere). This blend aims to enhance certain properties, such as durability, softness, or moisture-wicking abilities, while retaining some of the warmth and breathability that wool provides. Wool blends are commonly used in clothing and home textiles to achieve a balance of comfort, performance, and affordability.
Most likely wool or polyester.
