FAQs
What makes this strap top different from a regular wool top?
This top uniquely blends 70% organic merino wool with 30% silk. This combination offers the natural benefits of wool (warmth, breathability, odour resistance) with the added luxurious softness and smoothness of silk.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the fine merino wool and silk blend is known for its softness and breathability, making it gentle and comfortable for most skin types, even sensitive skin.
How often should I wash this top?
Merino wool is naturally odour-resistant. You can wear this top multiple times between washes, depending on usage. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers and reduce environmental impact.
Can I wear this top in warm weather?
While primarily a warming layer, the natural breathability of merino wool and silk helps regulate temperature. It can be comfortable in milder weather or as a light layer indoors.
What does 'organic merino wool' mean?
Organic merino wool is produced from sheep raised under strict organic farming standards, ensuring animal welfare and environmentally friendly practices, without the use of harmful pesticides or chemicals.
What is the benefit of the silk in the blend?
The silk adds an extra layer of softness and a smooth, luxurious feel against the skin. It complements the wool's properties by enhancing comfort and drape.
Troubleshooting
Top feels itchy after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have thoroughly rinsed out all soap. Avoid fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry.
Lace trim appears damaged.
This may indicate excessive friction during washing or drying. Always wash on a gentle cycle, preferably by hand, and avoid wringing or twisting the garment. Lay flat to dry.
Garment has lost its shape.
