Laundress Sweater Combs

$18.00

Even the finest of yarns can have a tendency to pill, and removing those with a quality product is key to keeping your hand knits looking fresh and in good condition. The Sweater Comb from The Laundress is perfect for your finer knits.

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.

Description

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.
