Slightly formed a round shape and dip a ball in hot water.
Having dipped, immediately take it out and start rolling the ball with palms. Roll carefully, without strong compression. Slightly rolled wool, dip ball in cold water (this time the coat can be kept in water). Then submerge the balloon in hot water.
