Default How to get fuzz off crocheted stuff?

I crochet a lot of things (beanies, bikinis, bags, etc) and a little while after I finish crocheting them, they start to get fuzzy and it's not as nice as they were when I first crocheted them. Are there any tricks to fix this? I've heard that you can soak it in fabric softener after you make it, but I haven't tried it. Any suggestions?

I actually have a fabric shaver that takes pills off of sweaters and crocheted things. I got it at Walmart, I think. It's amazing! [url]http://www.totalvac.com/parts/RPFS-100.html[/url]
