FAQs
Is this skirt suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% Merino wool is known for its exceptional softness and is generally very gentle on sensitive skin, unlike coarser wool types.
How does Merino wool help regulate temperature?
Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that creates air pockets, providing insulation in cold weather. The fibers also wick moisture away from the skin and allow it to evaporate, helping to keep you cool in warmer conditions.
Can I wash this skirt in a regular washing machine?
Yes, but only on a very gentle wool cycle at a low temperature (max 30°C) with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh cycles, high heat, and fabric softeners.
What does 'A-line shape' mean for this skirt?
An A-line shape means the skirt is fitted at the waist and gradually widens towards the hem, resembling the shape of the letter 'A'. This provides a comfortable fit and allows for easy movement.
How long will this skirt last?
With proper care, following the recommended washing and drying procedures, a 100% Merino wool garment like this skirt can last for many years, retaining its shape and softness.
Can this skirt be worn in both summer and winter?
Absolutely. Merino wool's natural breathability and insulating properties make it suitable for year-round wear. It will keep you warm in winter and comfortable without overheating in summer.
What makes the elastic waist 'double stitched'?
The double stitching, with one line of stitching above and one below the elastic band, secures the elastic firmly within the waistband. This prevents the elastic from twisting or rolling inside the seam during wear and washing, ensuring a consistent fit and durability.
Troubleshooting
Skirt appears too large or too small after washing.
Ensure you followed the specific washing and drying instructions for Merino wool, particularly avoiding high heat and excessive agitation, which can cause shrinkage or stretching. Laying flat to dry is crucial.
Waistband feels twisted or uncomfortable.
The double stitching should prevent twisting. If it occurs, gently try to reposition the band. If the issue persists, check if the size is appropriate or if there is any seam damage.
Fabric seems less soft after several washes.
Use a wool-specific detergent and ensure you are not using fabric softeners, which can coat wool fibers. Air drying naturally helps maintain softness.
Pilling has started to appear on the surface.
Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool. Gently remove pills by hand or use a fabric shaver specifically designed for wool. Follow care instructions to minimize future pilling.
