After washing we deal with, another problem arises: incredible, sweater pilling up!

In fact, there will always be friction wear sweaters, fabric fibers will loose out in motion, intertwined, bunched up into a lump is formed pompon. This phenomenon exists more or less on natural fibers and chemical fiber fabrics. The national textile industry standard only serves as a reference indicator for pilling problems and is not used as an indicator. Pilling mainly affects the appearance, and it is no problem for the intrinsic quality. It is also a textile technology problem that has yet to be solved internationally.

So how can we prevent this phenomenon and try to extend the life of our baby?

First, at the time of purchase, in respect of attention to it! Weaving exquisite, in general, needle, fine yarns, tightness of coarse needles, coarse yarn, loose structure of the sweater is not easy pilling. It feels tight and not fluffy. In the spinning process, the manufacturer makes the wool yarn feel soft, and the thread twist of the spinning is relaxed, so that the inter-fiber cohesion is relatively loose. When the sweater is rubbed, the short fibers are easily slipped from the yarn. Come out and form a small ball. Just twist some tight, less pilling, but the sweater will feel stiffer. Some thicknesses are thin. Most thin sweater flat needle-sided shirt, pin ring density than loose, easy to play ball. The majority of the thick points are four flat idling, the density of the stitches is tight, and the fibers are tightly held together. After the yarn is rubbed, the fibers are relatively slipped from the yarn, and it is difficult to pilling.

After buying it, we have to take good care of it. To reduce the pilling, try to avoid rubbing against rough surfaces. Some parts with more friction opportunities, such as sleeves and table tops, sofa armrests, inner pockets, wallets, etc., as well as long-term backpacks, wearing rough outerwear without lining, especially pilling, should minimize such contact. To show fewer local out of pilling, finger gently pulling or small scissors cut, along with a clothes brush brush you can look for more from the larger ball, can put sweaters Spread flat on a flat tabletop, use a brush to lightly brush the fabric, and straighten it tightly. Use a special electric razor to gently vacuum the hair vertically, shave the ball, and brush.
