Step 1

Lay your dry knitwear on a flat, hard surface

Step 2

Identify the direction of the stitch

Step 3

Focusing on one area at a time, in short sharp movements, comb along the direction of the knitwear fibres, changing your pressure for various knit tensions.

For loosely spun, loft knits
use lighter pressure to avoid snagging/pulling

For tighter, compact knits
apply a firmer pressure

Step 4

Repeat until pill balls have been removed from the surface.
