Product Information
Full details
This DILLING Pointelle Tank Top is designed for adult women seeking a soft, versatile, and naturally temperature-regulating base layer. Its key benefit is the exceptional softness and comfort provided by 100% Merino wool treated with an eco-friendly Plasma process. A potential caveat is that while it offers warmth, it is still a tank top and may require additional layers in very cold conditions. This garment features a classic boat neck, a delicate pointelle pattern combined with a ribbed texture, and is suitable for wear as an undershirt or as a standalone top.

FAQs
What makes the Merino wool so soft?
The wool undergoes an environmentally friendly Plasma treatment, which is a shock treatment process. This makes the fibers exceptionally soft against the skin while preserving the natural benefits of Merino wool.
Can I wear this tank top in the summer?
Yes, Merino wool is highly breathable and moisture-wicking, which helps regulate body temperature. It can be comfortable in warmer conditions by drawing moisture away from the skin, but its primary strength is in its versatility across seasons.
How often should I wash this tank top?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so you may not need to wash it after every wear. Airing it out between wears can often suffice. Follow the care instructions for washing when necessary, typically using a gentle cycle and wool detergent.
What does 'pointelle' pattern mean?
Pointelle is a knitting technique that creates a decorative pattern of small holes or openwork. On this tank top, it's a delicate visual detail that adds texture and elegance.
Is this tank top suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% Merino wool, especially when treated with the Plasma process for extra softness, is generally well-suited for sensitive skin as it is breathable and moisture-wicking, reducing irritation.
Can this be worn as a sports or performance baselayer?
While it offers excellent moisture-wicking and temperature regulation, its delicate pointelle design is more suited for casual wear or as a lifestyle base layer rather than high-impact sports where it might be exposed to more abrasion or stress.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the garment has been washed according to the care instructions. The Plasma treatment is designed to minimize itchiness, so re-washing may help if there's any residue from manufacturing or packaging.
Wool has lost its softness
This can sometimes happen if harsh detergents or fabric softeners were used. Try re-washing with a specific wool wash and avoid any softening agents. Ensure the garment is not dried on high heat.
Garment has stretched out of shape
Merino wool can be delicate. Ensure you are laying the garment flat to dry and not hanging it when wet. Gently reshape it while damp. Avoid excessive wringing or stretching during washing.
Small holes or snags appearing
Be mindful of rough surfaces or sharp objects that could snag the delicate wool fibers. While generally durable for its type, excessive friction can cause wear. Check care labels for any specific warnings.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the softness and longevity of your Merino wool tank top:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the wool fibers and reduce their natural properties.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape the garment while damp and lay it flat to air dry, away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting (wool program) using a pressing cloth.
- Avoid Bleach: Never use bleach or harsh chemical cleaners.
- Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging for extended periods to prevent stretching.
