Pilling on Leggings

I got some awesome leggings recent that I love.  They are fleece-lined and super comfortable. The only problem was that I accidentally dried them in the dryer and they began to pill horribly.  I considered throwing them out, then I remembered seeing online that someone was able to remove pilling on leggings by shaving one of their sweaters with a razor.  I figured it was worth a shot, so I put on my pants and shaved my legs while dress for the first time ever.  I’m not going to lie, it was a little time consuming and it doesn’t completely remove all the pilling–but it was definitely worth it!  I recommend keeping a lint roller nearby to run over your pants after “shaving” them.

Did you know you can literally shave the pilling off of your knit clothing? This is genius and just saved the leggings I accidentally dried in the dryer. | Pilling on Leggings by popular Utah sewing blogger, Kara Metta: image of woman removing pilling on leggings with a razor.

How do you get rid of pilling on leggings of any other of clothing?  Let me know in a comment below!
