Troubleshooting
Dress appears to have shrunk after washing.
Merino wool can be sensitive to heat. Ensure you are washing on a cold wool cycle (30°C) and avoiding the tumble dryer. If slight shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the garment while damp. Avoid high heat ironing.
Garment feels itchy after wearing.
While merino wool is known for its softness, individual sensitivity can vary. Ensure the care instructions are followed, as improper washing can affect the fiber. The wool terry is designed to be extra soft, but if irritation persists, consider wearing a thin base layer underneath.
Pilling observed on the fabric surface.
Pilling is a natural occurrence with knitted fabrics, especially merino wool. It can be reduced by washing inside out and using a wool-specific detergent. Pilling can typically be removed gently by hand or with a fabric comb.
