FAQs
Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, DILLING's merino wool is known for its fine fibers, which are soft and non-itchy, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin.
How often should I wash this T-shirt?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can often wear it multiple times before washing. Wash when it appears visibly dirty or has absorbed significant moisture.
Can I use regular detergent?
It is highly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicate fabrics. Regular detergents can strip the natural lanolin from the wool and damage the fibers.
Why does merino wool need special care?
Merino wool fibers are delicate and can be damaged by high heat, harsh detergents, and agitation, which can lead to shrinkage and loss of softness. Special care preserves the wool's natural properties.
What does 'merino wool' mean?
Merino wool comes from Merino sheep and is prized for its exceptionally fine, soft, and breathable fibers, offering superior comfort and performance compared to traditional wool.
Is this T-shirt suitable for summer?
Yes, merino wool is breathable and thermoregulating, meaning it can help keep you cool in warm weather by wicking away moisture.
What is the size 3-4 equivalent to?
Size 3-4 typically corresponds to children aged 3 to 4 years old, but it's always best to check the specific measurements if available.
Troubleshooting
T-shirt feels itchy
Ensure the care instructions have been followed. Merino wool is naturally soft, but improper washing can affect its texture. Check for any external tags or seams that might be causing irritation.
T-shirt has lost shape after washing
Merino wool garments should be laid flat to dry. Reshape the garment while damp and allow it to air dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric excessively.
Persistent odor despite washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the washing machine cycle is appropriate. For stubborn odors, a cool rinse cycle might help, followed by thorough air drying.
