FAQs
Is this dress suitable for newborns?
Yes, provided you select the appropriate size (e.g., size 0-3 months).
Can this dress be worn as pajamas?
No, this garment is explicitly not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daytime wear.
How often should I wash the dress?
Wash as needed. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can often be aired out between wears. Follow the care instructions for best results.
Is Merino wool itchy for babies?
DILLING uses fine Merino wool, which is known for its softness and lack of itchiness, making it ideal for sensitive baby skin.
What makes the knitting technique beneficial?
The knitting technique provides elasticity and flexibility, allowing your baby to move freely and comfortably without restriction.
How do I check if I've selected the right size?
The dress should allow for comfortable movement. Ensure there is enough room for your baby to crawl and play without feeling tight around the waist or shoulders, but not so loose that it becomes a hazard.
What other colors or sizes are available?
This specific product is available in Beige. Please check the product listing for other available sizes, such as 0-3 months, 3-5 months, 9-12 months, and 12-18 months.
Troubleshooting
Dress seems to have lost its shape after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle. Always lay flat to dry and avoid tumble drying. Gentle reshaping while damp may help.
Baby feels too warm or too cold
Merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating. If your baby feels too warm, they may be wearing too many layers underneath or the ambient temperature is high. If too cold, ensure appropriate layers are worn underneath for the environment.
Pilling or small balls forming on the fabric
Some pilling is natural with wool fibers over time, especially with friction. This does not affect the quality. You can use a fabric comb or shaver designed for wool to gently remove minor pilling.
