FAQs
What is the primary benefit of Merino wool for babies?
Merino wool is excellent for babies because it is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, keeping them comfortable in various conditions without irritation.
How warm are these leggings for winter?
The leggings are made with 100% organic Merino wool and a special knitting technique for a denser, warmer material, making them very effective for cold winter days when used as a base layer or outer layer.
Can these leggings be worn year-round?
While ideal for cold weather, Merino wool's breathability makes it suitable for cooler days in spring and autumn as well. For very warm summer days, they might be too warm.
How do I ensure the correct size for my baby?
Check the DILLING size guide for infants and compare your baby's measurements (height, weight) to the listed specifications for the 0-3 month size. It's often recommended to size up if your baby is between sizes.
Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% organic Merino wool is known for its softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it an excellent choice for babies with sensitive or eczema-prone skin.
Can I use a regular washing machine cycle?
It is highly recommended to use a specific wool cycle on your washing machine, typically set to 30°C or 40°C, and to use a wool-specific detergent. Avoid standard cycles and harsh detergents.
Where can I find matching items for other family members?
The product description mentions that the Nordic pattern collection is available for the whole family. You would need to browse the DILLING website for other adult or children's apparel within this collection.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel scratchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the washing instructions. Sometimes, a second rinse cycle can help remove any detergent residue. Merino wool is naturally soft, so scratchiness is often due to improper care.
Leggings shrunk after washing
This usually occurs due to washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. Always use a cool wool cycle and lay flat to dry. If minor shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp.
Pilling on the fabric
Pilling is a natural occurrence with knitted wool garments, especially when new. It can be reduced by washing inside out and using a lower spin speed. Gently remove pills with a wool comb or sweater shaver.
Color fading
Avoid washing with harsh detergents or exposing the garment to prolonged direct sunlight during drying, which can cause colors to fade. Wash with like colors using a mild wool detergent.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your Merino wool leggings:
- Washing: Machine wash on a wool program (usually 30°C or 40°C) with a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the wool fibers.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the leggings flat on a drying rack or clean towel, reshaping them gently while damp. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting with a damp cloth between the iron and the garment.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, consider using breathable garment bags.
