Fighting the Fuzz
 |
It seems no matter what we pay for sweaters these days they all manage to pill, some ever so slightly and others seem to breed fuzzy pills. Have you noticed it more under the arm or the side of your sweater where you wear your shoulder bag? Friction can create an unsightly fuzz fiasco. It can also be caused by the short filaments catching on just about anything.
In an effort to fight fuzz, I've tried razors, tape, special combs and even sandpaper. They never seem to do an adequate job.
No need to panic by pitching out your sweaters. They just need a little TLC from a battery operated fabric shaver. There are many from which to choose. Prices range any where from $5.99 to $35. You can find them in just about any drugstore. The Fuzz Wizard is my favorite and it is available at Bed Bath and Beyond for $9.99.
