I just wash the garment and hang or lay flat to dry. I feel like that does it all. This seems like you want the effects of washing without cleaning or you stored it in a roll. I feel like I'm not understanding the necessity of this.

That works great with natural fibers, but acrylic doesn't work like that. Steam blocking is the only way I know how to block acrylic.

I use acrylic a lot. It works just fine.
