毛衣的軟柔觸感，就像人體的第二層皮膚，有時一穿上就捨不得脫下來了，是舒適感滿滿的服飾品項。這也難怪科技保暖物料推陳出新，但毛衣始終沒有被淘汰，仍然在人們的衣櫥裡佔有一席位。不過凡事總有兩面，要說毛衣有什麼缺點，許多人都會不假思索地答「起毛球！」，心想著明明領口沒有鬆垮，整件看起來新簇簇的，唯獨是因為起毛球，就像頭髮瞬間花白令人看上去像老了十年。
解決的辦法也不是沒有，有人用剪刀一撮撮逐小地剪，有人用電動除毛機，飛快地劃過毛衣表面除毛球，但一個不小心，很容易就會把毛衣剪壞掉。那，到底會不會有更好的辦法呢？眼前的這個「Sweater Stone」除毛球石，或許就是那個辦法。
Soft and comfortable sweater fits like a second skin on our body. At times, I’d get so cozy in my sweater that I don’t want to take it off at all. It’s no wonder sweaters can still maintain a prominent presence in the wardrobe despite so many new and improved thermal wears being introduced to the market. Nothing is perfect, of course, and there is something truly frustrating about sweaters — the pilling! Just like how grey hair can make a person look older, those little fuzz balls can ruin a sweater and make it look old and worn out.
It’s not like pilling is unfixable. Some swear by the tedious method of trimming off the fuzz with a pair of scissors. Some choose to comb over the sweater with a fabric shaver. But either way, wielding a sharp blade next to my favorite sweaters is far too nerve-wracking for me. As I wondered how I can better defuzz my sweaters, I came across the Sweater Stone.
