FAQs
Is this top suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% organic merino wool is naturally soft and breathable, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin. It is designed to be non-itchy.
How does merino wool help regulate temperature?
Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, providing insulation in cold weather. They also wick moisture away from the skin and release it into the air, which helps keep the wearer cool in warmer conditions.
Can this top be worn year-round?
Yes, the thermoregulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for year-round wear. It provides warmth in winter and helps keep children cool in summer.
How often should I wash this top?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. It can often be worn multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions.
What size should I choose?
The size relates to children's UK sizing. Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING or the product listing for precise measurements. This specific listing is for size 9-10 years.
Are there other colors available?
This guide focuses on the Red variant. Please check other product listings for availability of different colors and sizes.
Troubleshooting
Top appears to have shrunk after washing
Merino wool can be sensitive to heat. Ensure you are washing on a cool/delicate cycle and air drying. If minor shrinkage occurred, gentle stretching while damp may help.
Red color bleeding onto other garments
Wash the red top separately for the first few washes in cold water. Use a color catcher sheet in the wash to absorb any loose dye.
Itchy sensation reported by the child
Ensure the care instructions are followed precisely, as incorrect washing can affect the wool's softness. Verify the size is correct, as a too-tight fit can sometimes cause discomfort. This garment is made from 100% merino wool, which is typically non-itchy.
