FAQs
What makes merino wool good for babies?
Merino wool is excellent for babies because it's soft, breathable, and naturally regulates temperature. It keeps babies warm in the cold and cool in the heat, wicks away moisture, and is gentle on sensitive skin.
How do I wash these merino wool tights?
Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Lay flat to dry and reshape while damp.
Can these tights be worn all year round?
Yes, merino wool's natural temperature-regulating properties make these tights suitable for year-round wear. They provide warmth in cooler months and breathability in warmer months.
What does 'organic' mean in this context?
Organic refers to the wool being sourced from sheep raised under strict organic farming standards, which prohibit the use of harmful pesticides and chemicals, ensuring a more natural and environmentally friendly product.
How should I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING and measure your baby's waist and leg length. The elasticated edge offers some flexibility, but choosing the correct size is key for comfort and performance.
Are these tights suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, organic merino wool is known for its fine fibers, which are significantly softer and less itchy than traditional wool, making it ideal for babies with sensitive skin.
What should I do if I notice pilling?
Slight pilling is a natural characteristic of wool. You can gently remove it with a fabric comb or shaver. To minimize pilling, wash the tights inside out and avoid high-friction activities.
Troubleshooting
Tights lose shape after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a delicate cycle at 30°C. Always lay flat to dry and reshape while damp. Avoid tumble drying.
Baby appears uncomfortable or overheated/too cold
Merino wool naturally regulates temperature, but consider the overall outfit. Ensure other layers are also breathable. For very cold weather, consider adding another layer underneath or choosing thicker wool items. For warmer weather, ensure the baby is not overdressed.
Pilling on the fabric
Some minor pilling is normal with natural wool fibers, especially with friction. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid abrasive surfaces. Pilling can often be gently removed with a fabric comb.
