How to Get Rid of Shoulder Bumps on Knits

Winter staples like sweaters, cardigans, and sweatshirts can easily develop those annoying shoulder bumps when hung on a regular hanger. Left unchecked, they can make pieces look lumpy or unwearable, so you end up re-washing or ironing them. Here’s a super-simple trick to smooth them out in just 10 seconds.

When heavy knits or sweatshirts hang on ordinary hangers, the shoulders tend to puff out and form bumps.

Don’t panic. All you need is a spray bottle.

Lightly mist the bumped and creased areas—about 3–5 short sprays is usually perfect. This speeds drying without soaking the fabric.

Then use a hair dryer on a warm—not hot—setting to gently dry the area. The heat relaxes the fibers and helps smooth the fabric, giving an iron-like finish.

With just a spray bottle and a hair dryer, you can quickly banish shoulder bumps and wrinkles. It’s way easier than pulling out the iron and perfect for quick fixes when your knits lose their shape.
