FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for very sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool treated with a Plasma process, making them exceptionally soft and non-itchy, ideal for sensitive skin.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The size '7-8' refers to the UK children's size. It's recommended to check the brand's specific size chart for precise measurements to ensure a good fit.

Can these leggings be worn on their own?

While they are designed as a warming layer, their attractive pattern allows them to be worn on their own for casual indoor wear or as part of a stylish outfit.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and self-cleaning. Washing only when necessary after several wears, or when visibly soiled, can help prolong the garment's life and preserve its properties. Spot cleaning is recommended for minor stains.

Are these leggings machine washable?

Yes, they are machine washable on a gentle wool program at 30°C (86°F). Always use a wool-specific detergent and avoid fabric softeners.

What does 'Plasma treatment' mean for the wool?

Plasma treatment is an environmentally friendly method used to make the merino wool fibers extremely soft against the skin, reducing any potential itchiness commonly associated with wool.

Do these leggings have matching items?

This specific product is part of a collection. While this guide focuses on the leggings, other DILLING items made from similar merino wool with pointelle patterns may be available.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel slightly stiff after washing.

This is normal for wool. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry and reshape while damp.

Leggings seem to have lost elasticity.

Check that you are not using harsh detergents or high heat during washing/drying. Air drying and avoiding tumble dryers helps maintain elasticity.

Small pulls or snags in the fabric.

Gently try to pull the yarn back through to the inside of the fabric. Avoid catching the fabric on sharp objects.

Wool odor persists after washing.

Ensure you are using an appropriate wool detergent and that the garment is rinsed thoroughly. Airing the garment outdoors can also help refresh it.
