FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, 100% organic merino wool is known for its exceptionally soft fibers, which are much finer than traditional wool. This makes it less likely to cause itching or irritation, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING for specific measurements. The knitting technique offers flexibility, but ensuring the correct chest and length measurements will provide the best fit and comfort.

Can this top be worn in the summer?

Yes, merino wool is naturally breathable and thermoregulating. It can help keep children cool by wicking away moisture and allowing air circulation, making it comfortable even in milder summer conditions or as a light layer.

How often should I wash this top?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can often be worn multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, based on visible dirt or odor, to prolong the life of the garment.

What is the benefit of the high neck design?

The high neck provides extra warmth and protection against the cold, reducing heat loss from the neck area. It also adds a stylish element to the top.

Can I use a regular washing machine to clean this?

Yes, you can use a regular washing machine if it has a specific 'wool' or 'delicate' cycle that can be set to a maximum of 30°C (86°F) and uses low spin speeds. Always use a wool-specific detergent.

Does the ruffle detailing affect comfort?

The ruffle detailing is designed to be a decorative element and is integrated into the garment's construction. It should not affect the overall comfort or restrict movement, as it is part of the shoulder seam design.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels itchy or uncomfortable.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle. Merino wool is typically very soft, so any itchiness might indicate improper washing or a rare sensitivity.

Top has lost its shape after washing.

Avoid wringing or twisting the garment. Always lay flat to dry. If stretching has occurred, try re-shaping it gently while damp and letting it air dry.

Merino wool smell persists after washing.

Ensure you are using an adequate amount of wool-friendly detergent and that the washing machine's wool cycle is functioning correctly. Airing out the garment in fresh air can also help.
