FAQs

Is merino wool really non-itchy for babies?

Yes, high-quality merino wool like that used by DILLING has very fine fibers that are typically softer and less itchy than traditional wool. It's generally well-tolerated by sensitive baby skin.

How long can my baby wear this one-piece?

The one-piece is designed with foldable cuffs on the sleeves and legs, allowing it to grow with your baby. It can typically be worn for a longer period than standard-sized clothing.

Can this be used as sleepwear?

Absolutely. The natural breathability and temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make it ideal for ensuring a comfortable and safe sleep environment.

How do I wash merino wool to prevent damage?

It's best to machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and always lay flat to air dry.

Is this suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, merino wool is known for its hypoallergenic properties and softness, making it an excellent choice for babies with sensitive skin.

What makes merino wool good for temperature regulation?

Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, creating insulation to keep warm. They also wick moisture away from the skin, helping to cool the body when it's warm.

Can I use this in warmer weather?

Merino wool is breathable and can wick moisture, so it can be comfortable in milder warm weather. However, for very hot conditions, lighter, more breathable fabrics might be preferred.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Lay flat to air dry away from direct heat.

Baby seems to be getting too warm.

While merino wool is temperature-regulating, ensure the baby is not overdressed underneath. Consider this one-piece as a base layer and adjust outer layers accordingly.

Shrinking after washing.

Always wash on a cool wool cycle (max 30°C) and avoid high heat drying. Lay flat to dry.
