FAQs
Are these briefs suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, the combination of organic merino wool and mulberry silk is exceptionally soft, breathable, and naturally hypoallergenic, making them ideal for children with sensitive skin.
How do I know the right size to order?
Please refer to the DILLING size chart provided, which typically matches children's UK sizes to measurements. Ensure you measure your child accurately for the best fit.
Can I machine wash these briefs?
Yes, you can machine wash them on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C, using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Why do they feel light but keep my child warm?
Merino wool has natural insulating properties that trap air and retain body heat, while silk adds a smooth, light layer. This combination provides warmth without bulk and adapts to the body's temperature.
What is the pointelle pattern?
The pointelle pattern is a subtle, decorative knit technique that creates a delicate, often floral or lacy-looking texture within the fabric. It adds a light, feminine aesthetic to the briefs.
How often should I wash these briefs?
It's best to wash them after each wear, following the care instructions. Frequent washing with the correct detergent will help maintain the fibers' integrity and hygiene.
Can these be worn in summer?
Yes, the breathable and moisture-wicking properties of merino wool and silk make them comfortable even in warmer weather, helping to keep skin dry and regulate temperature.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels rough after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Wash on a delicate cycle at a low temperature. Air dry flat. The natural fibers may require a gentle approach.
Waistband feels too tight
Check the size guide to ensure the correct size was selected. While the elastic is designed to be comfortable, fit can vary. Consider exchanging for a larger size if consistently uncomfortable.
Pointelle pattern snagged or pulled
Be cautious during wear and washing to avoid snagging. If a thread is pulled, try to gently tuck it back in. Major snags may be difficult to repair on delicate knitwear.
