What is Anti-Pilling Acrylic?
Acrylic fiber is widely used for textiles of all kinds: clothing, upholstery, carpets, and of course yarn. Acrylic is strong, lightweight, warm, soft, and resilient making it the yarn of choice for many.
But acrylic has a tendency to form pills – those hard little balls of tangled fibers on the surface of a fabric that make your clothes look worn way too soon. The same fine surface fibers that give the fabric its soft feel clump together and become enmeshed. Pilling is most likely in the areas of a garment that are subject to friction, like sleeve cuffs or under the arms.
Anti-pilling acrylic is a fiber preparation available in the US exclusively through Premier® Yarns. This fiber is specially formulated to resist pilling over time. If and when pills do form, they are removed through the simple process of machine washing your sweater or other project. No picking, no shaving - just toss it in the wash! Sweaters and blankets made with anti-pilling acrylic come out of the laundry looking fresh and new, time after time.
- Premier’s Anti-Pilling Acrylic fiber has been scientifically tested to last wash after wash!

United StatesThis affordable yarn offers rich color choices, stitches up like a dream, and allows me to finish my projects super fast! This yarn holds its shape well while I’m working with it, and best of all it can be machine washed and tumble dried. What’s not to love?
United StatesGreat yarn! Needed a bulky yarn to knit a Pouf and this works up nicely.
United StatesIt works up quickly and smoothly. Well worth it if you need quick projects and do m=not mind working with thick yarn.
United StatesI have used all weights of anti-pilling yarn from here. I highly recommend it. It washes and dries beautifully. Used for baby blankets and lap robes for nursing homes. Made 3 for college students and they have made all their studies.
United StatesI am in love with this yarn it is so soft and silky. When I was crocheting, it felt great on my hook and between my fingers. AND BEST of all, it is BULKY❤️❤️❤️❤️ More colors please� Totally recommend to everyone
