You might have to do it manually. Next time you are watching a good, long
movie, sit down with your sweater, some duct tape or a lint roller, and a
disposable razor or a small scissor to get the pilling off. And then be
really proud of yourself for finishing the task!

Does anyone know of some URLs on 'as seen on TV' investigations? I've
seen various 'lint shavers' that seem somewhat appealing. Do these
work at all? I *know* that a brush or roller isn't going to defoliate
my sweater. Maybe a shaver would do the job?

I don't have any urls for what you're looking for, but I bought a lint
shaver for less than $10 years ago, and it worked very well for me.

I gave my lint shaver to Goodwill recently. A cheap disposable razor works
faster and every bit as well.

If you go to a fabric store, singer makes a shaver type thing that has a
tortoise colored handle and a gold mesh blade. It works great and is just
a few dollars. You may need more than 1 for a lot of lint like it sounds
like you have.
