And it’s an easy fix too.
You wake up in the morning and the house feels cold, so you grab that warm sweater that you practically lived in last winter–the one that is super cozy but flattering too. Only once you get to the bus stop do you notice that it’s terribly pimply (the actual word is “pilling” but yeah, we say pimply too), so much so that you put your arms to your sides in an attempt to cover up the worst parts.
Well, we are all here to tell you that you can give your sweater a new life. And it’s easy too. It’s time to invest in a Fabric Shaver and Lint Remover
It’s not much of an investment actually. It’s usually around $10 and lasts a lifetime. This little machine will give your sweaters a second chance in no time.
All you have to do is carefully run the machine over the fuzz/pilling and the shaver inside cuts it off.
It’s also, strangely satisfying, if we may add.
Also, you know how some coats have a ribbed bottom or cuffs? This machine will give your coats a new life.
Note that we tried this on different types of fabrics that have pilled and it did not work across the board on all fabrics, but for sweaters, it’s definitely a win.

So cute to see this specific one featured. I have it and it’s great also they have amazinng customer service! one small piece of plastic was chipped and I called them and they sent me a replacement piece right away. I highly recommend it.

This little thingy will work where the lint remover doesn’t. And it won’t make any holes.

I have this exact one and I’m obsessed! I use it on literally everything to give it a fresh look!
