What the Fuzz? Fabric Pilling Explained
Ah, the old "I-only-wore-it-once-and-now-it's-pilling" scenario; we're all too familiar. The fact is, pilling happens and even the finest fabrics aren't immune. Here's a crash course on why fuzz balls accumulate and how to undermine the process.
Why the Fuzz?
Textiles are made with yarn, a spun thread used in both knitted and woven fabrics. With every wash, wear and the ticking of time, the tiny fibers that make up the yarn break. Thanks to not-so-fabulous friction, these "broken" fibers ball up to create pills (aka: fuzz balls) on the fabric’s surface. They then proliferate in high-friction areas like the under-arms, sleeves, bust area, and inner thighs. Yay.
Virtually all fabrics pill to some degree. The extent to which it's noticeable varies and it depends on 1) the fiber content, 2) the fabric structure, and 3) wash and care.
1) Fiber Content
Fiber content makes reference to what the fiber is actually made of. In general terms, we're talking natural fibers (cotton, linen, wool and silk to name a few), synthetic fibers (acrylic, polyester, lycra and others) and blends (Ex: cotton-polyester blend or a wool-acrylic blend).
Some fibers are more pill-prone than others. As a general rule, natural fibers pill less than synthetics as the individual strands that make up the yarn are both shorter and less robust. As a result, broken fibers are more likely to break off before they pill and the fuzz balls that do accumulate are more easily removed.
Synthetics, on the other hand, make for some tough fuzz. The long, robust strands found in these yarns tend to pull and stretch into pills rather than break off.
2) Fabric Structure
Knitted fabrics are made by looping yarn; woven fabrics are made by interlacing yarn at right angles. Knits (yes, even the really expensive ones) are looser in construction, leaving them more susceptible to friction and thus more prone to pilling. But, we love them for their forgiving stretch, deliberate textures and intricate pattern play (hello chunky cable knit!).
3) Wash & Care
Just as important as “what’s in it” and “how it’s made” is the tender loving care that you give each garment. Machine washing and drying are two major sources of friction so it’s important to read care labels carefully and launder your garments accordingly. For clothes that look new longer, use a mild detergent and wash them inside-out. As an extra precaution, skip the dryer and hang or lay flat to dry.
Of course, when pilling strikes despite your best efforts (and it will), we have an app for that: The Gleener Ultimate Fuzz Remover and its trusty travel sidekick, the Gleener on the Go.

If I could give one piece of advice, it’s this: if something seems too good to be true, it probably is. I was drawn into a crypto arbitrage scheme in early 2023 while living in Singapore. The platform promised easy profits by exploiting price differences in cryptocurrencies across exchanges. They had an app and what seemed like guaranteed strategies, even using ‘AI’ to make trades. I started with $2,000, lured by the daily updates showing how my balance was growing. Everything seemed fine at first, consistent, modest gains. I watched as my account hit $12,000 in just a few weeks which subsequently led me to invest more funds into this platform. But when I tried to withdraw my funds, the problems started. First, there was a withdrawal fee, which I didn’t think much of much at the time. But then they requested another fee for exchange commissions, followed by a tax settlement fee. Each time I thought I was one step closer to accessing my money, a new obstacle appeared. I ended up paying nearly $20,000 in fees without ever seeing a cent of my profits. The company eventually went silent on me, and I was left reeling from the loss. I felt ashamed for falling for it, but also furious at how sophisticated the scam had been. After months of research, I found Ryan Ackroyd Wizard Expert, a team that specializes in recovering lost digital assets. Thanks to their expert work, they were able to access and recover my funds including all earnings from my portfolio into my bank accounts without trace of any form, and they gave me back a sense of hope in an otherwise hopeless situation.

I’ll advise others to be wary of the kind of emails they open, as this happened a few weeks ago when a phishing email was sent to my email unknowingly to me that it was a keylogger with the intent of stealing my private information and if not for the intervention of Morphohack Cyber Services, I would have been cleaned out completely. I contacted Morphohack Cyber Services a week after that incident and they detected the keylogger in my computer which has been there for months stealing my private information. If my crypto wallet was not drained, I would not have been aware of the keylogger in my device. Morphohack was able to secure my devices and retrieve my crypto wallet including the crypto assets. Their sophisticated security features and malware can beat any hacking tools available and they are very professional and ethical. Morphohack is a lifesaver and I hugely recommend their services.
