What does this mean??? Shave Question

So what does it mean when people say their wool needs a shave..??? Is the wool fuzzy so now they're trimming it?? How do they do it?? 

 

Thanks for any info!!

Re: What does this mean??? Shave Question

  • I've wondered about this too, but I think that it has pilling - like how my sweaters sort of get little balls on them - particularly under the arms.

    I pick those off by hand, but I bet there's some device out there...

  • I think it just means getting rid of the pilling by using one of those fabric shavers often used for clothes. I use one when my sweaters gets pills on them.

    This. I don't use wool, but I know about shaving pilled clothes. My mom gave me a dinky little one she found in her sewing stash recently. She gave me a bunch of hand-me-down baby clothes (that had been mine)- some were in really worn condition. We were SHOCKED at what a fabulous job the shaver did restoring them.
