Full details
This DILLING Children's Merino Wool Long Sleeved Top in Purple (size 7-8) is designed for active kids seeking comfort and temperature regulation in a natural material. Its key benefit is the super-soft, 100% organic merino wool that adapts to the child's body temperature. A potential caveat is the unique textured weave, which, while adding flexibility, might be perceived differently by some children initially.

FAQs
What makes merino wool special for children's clothing?
Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, making it ideal for children's sensitive skin and active lifestyles. It keeps them warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather.
Is this top suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, this top is made from 100% organic merino wool that has undergone a special eco-friendly enzyme treatment, specifically designed to enhance softness and minimize any potential irritation.
How do I wash this merino wool top?
It is best to machine wash on a wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and lay flat to dry.
Can this top be worn year-round?
Yes, due to its thermoregulating properties, it's suitable for year-round wear. It provides warmth in winter and breathability in summer.
What does 'regular and relaxed fit' mean for this top?
This means the top is not tight-fitting. It has a comfortable amount of room for movement and layering, with shoulders that sit slightly lower than a standard seam for added comfort.
Does the textured fabric affect comfort?
The irregular texture is designed to add flexibility. While most children find it comfortable, some may need a short period to adjust to the unique feel compared to smoother fabrics.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the correct washing temperature (max 30°C). Avoid fabric softeners. Air dry flat.
Wool seems to have lost some softness.
This can sometimes happen if the wool has been exposed to harsh detergents or high heat. Ensure all care instructions are strictly followed for future washes. Occasional airing can also help refresh the fibers.
Sizing feels slightly off.
Merino wool has a natural elasticity. Ensure the garment is laid flat to dry, as improper drying can affect its shape. Check the size chart provided by DILLING for accurate measurements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Washing: Machine wash on a wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a wool-specific detergent.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the garment flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting (wool program), preferably while the garment is slightly damp.
- Avoid: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the wool fibers.
