Cotton fabric typically shrinks about 2% to 5% when washed and dried, depending on the specific fabric and how it was processed. For a 60% cotton blend, you can expect similar shrinkage, generally around 2% to 3%. However, the exact amount can vary based on factors like the washing method and temperature. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions to minimize shrinkage.
