The Laundress | Sweater Comb
We love using this comb to de-pill our delicate knits and fine-gauge woolens while leaving our heavier knit items to the Sweater Stone. We like to have both tools on hand to use on sweaters, scarves, wool coats, and even pant legs. Two fine metal mesh screens on a cedar wood handle gently pick up stray pills while leaving renewed yarns behind. Simply glide in one direction over target areas.
Test on an inconspicuous area of the garment. Lay the item on a flat surface. Glide the comb in one direction over target areas, using short, gentle strokes. Bulky knits need only a light touch, while tighter knits can take a more aggressive combing.
Ideal for:
Fine-gauge wool, cashmere, merino, mohair, blends, and synthetics
Items such as lightweight sweaters, wool suits, scarves, and hats
Delicately collects pills and effectively handles edges such as cuffs, collars, and waistbands
To clean: Remove the collected lint from the screen after each use
