Lint on sweater after washing? - Kenmore Washing Machines

The upper tension is pulling too hard. You need to lower the tension of the upper tension. You might want to try it on some scrap wool so you can get it right.

There are certain fabrics that shed lint...towels and sweaters for
example...do not wash those with shirts and socks and other
items that do not. Separate your loads and you should not have
the problem.

I have an acrylic blanket that feels different when wet, sort of tight. But when it dries out, it is soft and sort of spongy like before. Hopefully this will be the case for your sweater.

Please have a full cleaning done on the machine

You should let the clothing dry and then take it outside and give it a good shake. Any hair that is left over use a lint brush (if you have) or another cool trick is to use brown parcel tape wrapped around your hand (sticky side out) and brush the clothes with it, after you remove the hair I would wash the clothes once more.

many front loader washing machines don't have different water level options since they cycle the water differently than the "tub-o-soap" upright washers. The best answer I can give, if there are different fill settings, is to put the laundry in the machine and see how full it looks. Err on the side of overfilling, since the towels will soak up a lot of the water, and unless the sweaters are delicate or inclined to stretch out badly, I'd opt for an extra spin cycle to get rid of the excess water soaked up by the towels and sweaters.

i have the same problem, what i find helps put a bed sheet in with the sweater to even the load, ( I keep a sheet by the washer for this specifically) and take it off max. spin cycle for the small load (I know this sounds stupid) I have a bosch also and I have problems with small blankets too. This usually helps, but I found that if i do this under the 25 minute quick wash instead of the regular wash it doesn't spin out either, kind of stupid to run a machine with only one sweater for 58 minutes, I would never buy a front loader again, betty

Their is no lint filter but I bet your upper agitator is stripped. Check out this VIDEO

low temperature and low rpm of motor,must try this.

There are many things that cause lint. Some are easy to figure out, some aren't. Here are some of the most common things: 1. Separate clothes that are lint givers from lint takers (i.e., sweaters are lint givers and should not be washed with cotton which attracts lint). 2. Check clothes pockets for tissues or paper. 3. Don't overload the machine. 4. Use enough detergent to hold the lint in suspension. Read the recommended usage on the detergent bottle. 5. Use enough water to rinse the lint away. Washing large loads on a water saver mode is not a good idea. 6. Use fabric softener to reduce static attraction of lint. 7. Washing clothes on too long of a cycle, too often can cause premature wearing of the the fabrics. I hope some of this may help you. PS Adding a cup of plain white vinegar to the rinse cycle has also been known as a "cure" for controlling lint.
