Solutions For Shrunk Clothing

I am a believer in not dry cleaning, but recently I washed some Dry Clean Only clothes, in cold water on the gentle cycle, and had some problems with mild shrinking. The pieces didn't shrink a lot, but just enough.

This is probably a silly question, but does anyone know of any real way to un-shrink clothing that has been shrunk? Clothing made of wool, viscose or rayon, which can be very delicate, but not always! Sometimes it turns out fine when washed gently in cold water.

I have heard that soaking the item in cold water with hair conditioner and then stretching it out helps, but maybe nothing really does.

I'd appreciate any tips anyone might have!
