Pilling<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Pilling occurs when short fibres in wool fabric tangle together due to friction, forming small bobbles or “pills” on the surface. It\u2019s a natural process and does not mean the fabric is of poor quality, but you can minimize it to keep the factory condition of your garment longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To minimize pilling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Use a gentle cycle or hand wash in cold water with a wool-specific detergent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • When washing the garments, turn them inside out to reduce friction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Use a Laundry Bag. A mesh laundry bag helps minimize agitation in the wash.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Avoid Fabric Softeners. They can weaken fibres and increase friction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Limit Friction. Wearing wool garments under harsh lined coats, backpacks, harsh bag straps can accelerate pilling. Choose smoother linings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    To remove pills:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Pick off pills carefully by hand to avoid damaging the fibres.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Use fabric shaver. A battery-operated fabric shaver can quickly remove pills without damaging the garment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Gently comb away pills with a wool comb or sweater stone<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
