Fix for sweater that's "pilling?"

[WDWAurora]

Anyone know how to fix this? Do those little machine things work or is there something better? Thanks for any advice!!

Those little machines do work but you can also take a razor (i.e. Bic disposable) and go over the pills lightly to get rid of them.

I use the shavers to remove the "pills" from my sweaters, etc. It works very well

The shaver thingies work, but you're likely to have the same thing happen each time you wash the sweater, until there's no sweater left to be shaved.

Personally, I don't have the patience for that process, so once I see pilling, it goes in the Goodwill bag, and I put that store/brand on my "not to be purchased" list. I am LAZY, y'all!

See these are dry clean and most of them haven't even been cleaned at all...I'm not dirty or anything, but I just don't see the point in spending tons on a dry cleaning bill when I always wear something under them, so they don't even touch my skin....and I'm a bigtime sweater collector, so I have tons, they each get worn maybe 4 times or so each a year, so they're not getting tons of wear. So razor blades or those shavers are my best bet?

Thanks guys...I always know where to go for my silly questions.
