FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the merino wool and silk blend?

The blend offers superior softness and comfort against the skin, combined with the natural thermoregulating and breathable properties of merino wool, ensuring your baby stays comfortable in various temperatures.

Can this onesie be worn year-round?

Yes, the natural thermoregulation of merino wool makes it suitable for both warmer and cooler seasons. You may need to adjust other layers based on the ambient temperature.

How do I wash the onesie to preserve its quality?

It is best to machine wash on a delicate wool cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent, or hand wash. Always lay flat to dry and avoid tumble drying or harsh chemicals.

Does the onesie have feet?

No, this onesie does not have enclosed feet. This allows for flexibility and ensures the garment continues to fit as your baby grows. You can easily add socks or booties as needed.

What does 'pointelle' mean?

Pointelle is a knitting technique that creates delicate, openwork patterns. In this onesie, it refers to the decorative, lacy design incorporated into the fabric.

Is this garment suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the organic merino wool and silk blend is known for its exceptional softness and is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for babies with sensitive skin.

What sizes are available for this product?

This specific product listing is for sizes 6-18 months. Other sizes, such as 6-9, 9-12, and 18-24 months, may be available in the same style and color.

Troubleshooting

Onesie feels rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have not used fabric softener. Reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. A gentle rinse in wool conditioner may help restore softness.

Baby feels too warm or too cold.

Adjust the layers accordingly. While the merino wool is thermoregulating, extreme temperatures may require additional clothing or removing layers. Ensure the fit is not too tight, which can impede natural temperature regulation.

Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten.

Ensure the fabric around the poppers is aligned correctly. If new, they may be stiff; gentle, repeated use should loosen them. If a popper becomes loose, do not force it; contact customer support.
