Why does it seem like some of my sweaters have a soft and loose "lint layer" on the inside? (lemm.ee)

It's always particularly nice and soft the first time you put it on, but the one I got most recently is so bad it leaves a thin but thorough coat of black fur on my arms when I take it off. What's the production methods used when making sweaters like this?

Is it just a coincidence that your username is one letter away from being a type of sweater?

Haha, yes in this case it is. It's rather a typo from "Caraighan Maconar", an Aes Sedai of the green Ajah from the Wheel of Time novels. Been using that forever, never realized how close it is to "cardigan", usually people think it's "Kerrigan" from Starcraft. 😄
