bobbly sweaters

[cruelladepoppins]

Do you have a sweater shaver? Indispensible or waste of time? And has anyone got rid of their sweater bobbles using an ordinary razor?

Mine is indispensable and worth every penny.

I hate acrylic knitwear so all mine is lambswool or similar which is great but pills like mad, ime.

I wouldn't risk an ordinary razor.

Oh yes I use mine too. Not often but when you need it it's the only thing that does the job.

A razor is asking for a sliced cardi I fear.

my mum has one from lakeland and I was so impressed after she de bobbled one of DD1s cardies I am going ot get one

I've used a cheap disposable bic razor and selotape loads of times and never had any incidents! Works a treat

I have a Bobble Off, works well.

By this do you mean the combs you can get from haberdasheries or actual electronic shavers?

Mippy I mean the battery-operated shavers, but will take advice on all methods!

Thanks everyone for the advice so far.

My Mum bought me a Remington Fuzzaway for my 25th birthday. I was so livid I threw it against the wall and smashed it

I used a razor and ended up with a hole in a cashmere cardi
