FAQs
Is this dress suitable for sleepwear?
No, this dress is made from merino wool and is designed for active wear and comfortable daytime use. It is not intended for sleepwear.
How does merino wool keep my child comfortable?
Merino wool is a natural fiber that breathes and regulates temperature. It helps keep your child warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm by wicking moisture away from the skin and allowing air circulation.
Can I machine wash this dress?
Yes, you can machine wash the dress on a wool program at 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. It is best to lay it flat to dry.
What does '1x1 smooth quality' mean?
This refers to the knit structure of the fabric. A 1x1 rib knit is known for its elasticity and smooth texture, making it feel very soft and comfortable against the skin.
How should I store the dress when not in use?
Store the dress folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging, as this can stretch the knit over time. Consider using moth repellents if storing for extended periods.
Is merino wool itchy for children?
DILLING uses high-quality, fine merino wool that is exceptionally soft and not itchy. The 1x1 smooth quality further enhances its comfort against sensitive skin.
What if my child has allergies?
Merino wool is a natural, hypoallergenic fiber that is often well-tolerated by individuals with sensitive skin or allergies. It is breathable and moisture-wicking, which can help prevent irritation.
Troubleshooting
Wool feels itchy after washing
Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and a gentle wool cycle. Avoid fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers. Lay flat to dry completely, as residual moisture can sometimes make wool feel less soft.
Garment has lost its shape
Merino wool is naturally elastic. Gently reshape the garment while it is damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid stretching or wringing the fabric excessively during washing.
Small holes or snags appear
Inspect for potential snags from zippers, velcro, or rough surfaces. Merino wool can be delicate. If a small hole appears, it may be repairable by hand-sewing. Future prevention involves careful garment handling.
Color fading
Always wash colored wool garments separately, especially for the first few washes. Use cold water and a detergent free of optical brighteners. Avoid direct sunlight during drying.
