FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Merino wool and silk blend?
The blend offers exceptional softness, breathability, and natural temperature regulation, keeping your baby comfortable in varying conditions.
Does the one-piece have enclosed feet?
No, this model does not have enclosed feet, allowing for more flexibility with footwear or bare feet.
How should I wash this garment?
Machine wash on a wool program at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to air dry.
Is this suitable for newborns?
Yes, the soft, breathable, and thermoregulating properties make it ideal for newborns and infants, especially as a base layer.
What does 'pointelle' mean?
Pointelle refers to a type of knitting that creates delicate, patterned openwork, giving the garment its charming decorative details.
Can I use regular detergent?
It is highly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool and silk. Regular detergents can strip natural lanolin from wool and damage silk fibers, affecting the garment's properties and longevity.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING, usually based on age and height. The 12-18 month size is suitable for babies within that age range.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels stiff after washing
This can sometimes happen with wool. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Try a gentle hand wash if machine washing causes stiffness.
Skin irritation despite natural fibers
While rare, some individuals may have sensitivities. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions before first use. Check that the care label itself isn't causing irritation.
Shrinkage after washing
Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat or vigorous agitation. Always wash on a cool wool program (30°C) and air dry flat. Avoid the tumble dryer.
