Troubleshooting
Dress feels stiff after washing
This can happen with wool blends. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Reshape the garment while damp and dry flat. A very low-heat iron on the reverse side might help.
Small pills or fuzz balls appearing on the fabric
Pilling is a natural characteristic of natural fibers like merino wool. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid excessive rubbing during washing and wear.
Color fading
Ensure the garment is washed in cold water and dried away from direct sunlight. Use a detergent with color-safe properties.
