How to Avoid Pilling on Clothes: Simple Methods
04.10.2024 13:59
Even the most expensive clothes can develop pilling over time, turning them into a dull rag.
A lint remover can solve this problem, but there is not always time to clean the item and this method will not help with delicate fabrics.
How to prevent rolling
There are several simple ways to help keep the surface of knitted and jersey items free of pilling.
First of all, remember: any items should be washed inside out.
The second life hack is to do laundry less often. This does not mean that you should walk around in dirty clothes. For example, the same sweater can be refreshed without washing, just by keeping it in the freezer for 12 hours.
To ensure that your items are less damaged during machine washing, use the following tips:
- choose the hand wash mode, which involves a more careful approach to things;
- try washing your clothes with a special washing powder enriched with enzymes (these substances help smooth out fabrics and work even in cold water).
