can you change the scale of the garment while it is solving a cloth simulation? if i make a panel from a nurbs square and then turn that into a garment then animate the Nurbs square so the garment size changes while it is simulating does this cause errors or is there a better way to do this?

for example if i wanted to change a short sleeve shirt into a long sleve one.
