Sweater Shaving!

So, stepping away from food for one minute, I tried sweater shaving. I remember one year looking to buy my sister a sweater shaver for Christmas. It was probably about ten dollars and I'm pretty sure it didn't work. This technique however, does work.

I should've taken pictures, but I didn't. I took this really cute Hollister sweater that my boyfriend bought me last year? The year before? I believe I wore it once or twice and these giant sweater fuzzes started to show up. It got so bad that I stopped wearing it. I'm glad I kept it though!

A year or two later...I got a fairly new razor and started to go to town on this sweater. In about an hour (it was a big sweater, and I was watching  Charlie and The Chocolate Factory) I had a fairly new sweater. It wasn't perfect by any means but it was definitely wearable.

The verdict: It works! I wore the sweater the next day and my sister asked if it was new! I am definitely going to try this on some other clothes that are on their way out. It is a  great sweater shaving saving technique!
