Yarn Food Cedar Wool Comb

Make pilling a thing of the past with Yarn Food's pilling comb.

Yarn Food’s red cedar wooden pilling comb is your perfect accessory to remove pilling and keep your hand knit and woollen garments and accessories looking their best. Often called a cashmere comb, this is the safest and gentlest way to de-pill and refresh your handknits. Unlike electric de-pillers that can cut into the fibres, this wool comb simply brushes them away. 

Pilling occurs when loose fibres of your garment rub together, forming small bobbles—especially under the arms and along the elbows and sides.

Regular combing helps garments stay soft, in shape and beautiful for longer while reducing the amount of plastic used in everyday life. Care for your garment, care for your planet.  

Yarn Food's red cedar wood pilling combs are the sustainable answer to your garment care. Reduce the amount of plastic used in everyday life by choosing products that are environmentally friendly.

Safe to use on cashmere, merino, mohair alpaca and blown yarns.

How to use:

• Lay your knitted piece flat on a clean surface   
• Gently stretch the fabric with one hand and comb with the other
• Concentrate on areas that get the most friction: underarms, elbows, sides
• Clear any collected fibres from the comb as you go for easy disposal
• Repeat whenever bobbles appear
