Okay, this is a secret just between us on the Quilt Board....shhhh, don't tell my husband. You can use your husbands electric razor to defuzz it. When they were talking about the sweater defuzzer, I thought, hey! my husband has an electric razor that he very seldom uses so I used it and it worked! He has switched to hand razor blades he gets on the internet and doesn't use it at all...well hardly. You didn't hear that from me...shhhhh.
