How to prevent sweaters from pilling

Updatetime:2025-8-7 larger small

To prevent sweaters from pilling, pay attention to details in wearing and care:

 

Reduce friction when wearing: Avoid prolonged contact with rough surfaces (e.g., backpack straps, stiff denim). Choose smooth inner layers (silk, cotton satin) to minimize fiber entanglement. Be mindful of movement range to prevent excessive friction at armpits and elbows.

 

Proper washing and care: Use neutral detergent with water below 30. Hand-wash gently or use the "wool" setting on the washing machine; avoid harsh rubbing. After washing, press to absorb water instead of wringing. Dry in a cool, shaded place to prevent fiber damage from stretching, which makes them prone to pilling.

 

Daily maintenance: For minor pills, use a special ball-removing tool (with a blunt blade tip) to gently press against the fabric and trim it., avoiding pulling. Clean thoroughly before storage. Place soft paper between friction-prone areas when folding to reduce fiber tangling from pressure.

 

Material matters too: Combed wool and tightly woven sweaters have more stable fiber structures, significantly lowering pilling chances.
