quick knit-pilling question

see all the ickle balls of fluff-that-aren’t-so-fluffy? (click to go to original post)

I think that’s the correct term, “pilling.”

As in all those teensy balls of fluff that have covered this knit dress over its 2-years of summer wearing.

It’s too much to shave off, even with my little electric fluff shaver.

Definitely can’t face trashing this after only a couple years wear.

And besides, it’s green! ! ! ! ! ! !
