A flat comb or a comb with closely spaced teeth is best for removing pellets.
It will be more convenient if the teeth are not sharp: during the process of cleaning the fabric, they will not constantly “cling” to the plexuses, if you need to remove pellets, for example, from a sweater.
How to remove pills from clothes with a utility knife
A sharp utility blade can be used to clean an item in the same way as a razor blade.
Move along the fibers of the stretched fabric very close to the surface, as if shaving it.
As you clean, collect the cut pellets with your hands and throw away.
How to quickly and easily remove pellets
You can quickly remove pills from a sweater using tape.
Simply cut a strip of duct tape and stick it to the pilled area, then quickly rip it off.
There will be lint and threads left on it, which will make the product look unpresentable.
How to avoid pilling on a sweater
To avoid pilling, it is better to machine wash the sweater in a cotton bag or regular pillowcase.
It is best to dry a sweater outside on a windy day - the wool seems to return to its habitat.
