Craft comfortably knowing that this yarn is safe for you! It has passed the highest standard, suitable for direct contact with the most sensitive skin, even babies and small children.
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 this thread. It is soft, very easy to knit. My shirt is a modification of SP of Santa Patience. I'm fascinated. I have also worn it in a shawl.

My amigurumi projects have a much greater professional look when made with the Anti-Pilling Everyday DK yarns. It is my new go-to yarn for all my projects.

I'm really impressed by how soft this yarn is. I'm knitting a blanket which takes awhile so anti-pilling is really important. Overall this is really nice yarn.
