In my experience the finer the lace the less the shrinkage is.  Very thick 
threads such as used for scarves etc with footedge pinspacing of 10mm or more 
tend to shrink about 10%, but rather less for the sort of scale you will be 
using (which is probably about 4mm) so 5% is probably a better estimate.
