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 Pilbloc™ 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.

I love the feel of this yarn! Just hate that the end is on the outside. If you don’t re-roll it, it just flops everywhere. If it were a center pull it would be 5 stars.

I’ve gotten into making some very intricate and involved crocheted blankets, and this yarn is perfect! Being as these projects are so detailed, I’d really like my “creations” to last a long time without looking old and fuzzy. This yarn seems to be perfect for that, and it’s also got a very nice texture and softness that is working out great!! I will definitely use it again very soon for my next project.

I love Anti-Pilling yarn in worsted weight. I use it to make chemo caps. The caps are soft and warm. The patients say they are very comfortable!

This yarn is soft and pretty without too many spinning errors but splits often enough I have to go just a tad bit slower with it than with others of same gauge. Probably will only use again if I absolutely cannot find a color in another yarn.
