FAQs
Is this top suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, the merino wool's natural insulating properties make it excellent for cold weather. It's often best used as a base layer for maximum warmth and moisture-wicking.
Can this top be worn year-round?
Absolutely. Merino wool's temperature-regulating abilities mean it keeps children warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm, making it suitable for all seasons.
How do I know if I'm using the right detergent?
Look for detergents specifically labeled for wool or delicates. These are formulated to be gentle and pH-neutral, protecting the wool fibers.
Will this top lose its shape after washing?
With proper care (cold wash, gentle cycle, lay flat to dry), merino wool garments are very resilient and should retain their shape well.
Is merino wool breathable?
Yes, merino wool is highly breathable. It allows moisture vapor to pass through the fibers, preventing a clammy feeling.
Can I put this in the dryer?
No, it is crucial not to tumble dry merino wool. High heat can cause irreversible shrinkage and damage the fibers. Always lay flat to dry.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing at the correct temperature. Merino wool is generally very soft, but initial washes can sometimes help soften fibers further.
Shrinkage after washing
Check that the washing machine was set to the correct temperature (max 30°C) and cycle (wool/delicate). Avoid high heat in drying. If slight shrinkage has occurred, lay flat and gently reshape.
Pilling on the surface
Some pilling is natural with wool. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid overcrowding the washing machine. Use a fabric comb to gently remove any pills if they become noticeable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires minimal setup – it's ready to wear right out of the packaging. It is compatible with most children's outerwear and layers. To maintain the quality and longevity of your merino wool roll neck:
