Troubleshooting
Dress loses shape after washing
Ensure you are using a wool wash cycle and a wool-specific detergent. Lay flat to dry, avoiding any stretching during the drying process. Avoid high spin cycles.
Itchy sensation reported by child
While merino wool is generally soft, ensure the care instructions have been followed precisely. If the issue persists, the child may have extreme sensitivity. Try wearing a thin base layer underneath.
Pilling on the fabric
Some pilling is natural with fine wool fibers. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver designed for wool. Ensure you are washing with like colors and avoiding harsh rubbing.
