It really helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858578 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 16:36:58 +0000 Tanya 1858578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have both the device JAileen showed and a sweater comb, and they both work well. I use the comb on fluffier sweaters and the shaver on the smoother knits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858575 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 16:27:54 +0000 karen13 1858575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not to hijack, but anything in particular that works well for cashmere?</p> <p>I have used a safety razor gently with little pressure for my wool sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858572 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 16:23:21 +0000 Anonymous 1858572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sweater shaver like what JAileen showed, but a couple of years ago a study showed the best way to take them off and prevent as much depilling is to cut them. I use a small sharp scissors. Just take your time so as not to cut the knit or fabric. It's a good job for when doing anything mindless, like watching tv or waiting for someone to take your call on the phone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858567 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 15:59:41 +0000 The Cat 1858567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What JAileen said and showed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858561 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 15:37:45 +0000 Greyscale 1858561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually switched to using a disposable razor. I have a sweater comb (rough metal that grabs pills) and it's good but it leaves the sweater fuzzy by pulling things off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858557 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 15:31:31 +0000 JAileen 1858557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have this and it works very well:</p> <p><a href="http://www.knitpicks.com/accessories/Lint_Shaver__D80635.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.knitpicks.com/acces.....80635.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/removing-pills-from-sweaters#post-1858554 Mon, 06 Nov 2017 15:15:38 +0000 tammyw 1858554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you found something that works well?
