I was at a vintage flea market where one booth was actually vests and mittens and caps made from vintage felted (shrunken) sweaters (if you stretch the definition of vintage to the 1980s). They made the vests from the bodies of the sweaters and the caps and mittens from the sleeves. They were soft and warm.
You could take the sweater to a good dry cleaners and ask them if blocking it would help, but I'd guess that you have a retired sweater.
