Keep wool, cashmere and other natural-fibre garments looking their best with the Yarn Food Pilling Comb.

Made from red cedar wood, this simple fibre-care tool gently removes pills and surface fuzz caused by everyday wear, helping restore a smoother, neater finish to treasured garments.

Pilling naturally occurs when loose fibres rub together, particularly in high-friction areas such as under the arms, along the sides and at the elbows. Regular gentle combing helps keep garments looking well cared for and extends the time they can be enjoyed.

Ideal for wool, cashmere, merino and other knitwear, whether handmade or bought.

    FAQs

    Why does the water look darker after soaking my knit socks?

    Please always test your yarns for colourfastness before washing. The natural cleaning agents in the formula will gently remove grime and dirt from your garment, which will be visible in the basin when you remove your item from the water. For very soiled socks, you can repeat the soaking process twice, or until satisfied with the outcome.

    CAN I SOAK MY SOCKS FOR MORE THAN 20 MINUTES?

    In most cases it is safe to soak your socks for longer than 20 minutes, however, we always recommend checking the care information of the yarn you’ve used and special requirements.

    Can I use YarnFood in the washing machine?

    Yes, you can use Yarn Food in the washing machine on a wool or delicate cycle. Add 15 ml, or 9 pumps, either directly into the machine or into the detergent drawer. Your garments will still be cleaned and fed, but some of the nourishment may be washed out in the rinsing process, which is why
    the hand-wash and soak option is the preferred method for Yarn Food.
