FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for babies with sensitive skin?

Yes, merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic, making it an excellent choice for babies with sensitive or eczema-prone skin. The fine fibers are less likely to cause irritation compared to coarser wools.

How often should I wash this one-piece?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and doesn't require frequent washing. Washing after every few wears, or when visibly dirty, is typically sufficient. Airing out the garment between wears can help refresh it.

Can this one-piece be worn in all seasons?

Due to its natural temperature-regulating properties, it can be worn year-round. It serves as an excellent warm layer in cooler months and a breathable, moisture-wicking layer in warmer temperatures, especially indoors or as a base layer.

What is the difference between wool terry and other DILLING wool qualities?

The wool terry is a slightly thicker quality compared to their other wool fabrics. It has a plush, soft inner surface and a smooth outer surface, offering extra warmth and comfort, making it ideal for mid-layer garments.

How do I ensure I buy the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING, which typically correlates UK baby sizes with age ranges. This one-piece is designed for infants, and the sizing indicates the age group it's intended for (e.g., 6-9 months).

Can I use a fabric softener with merino wool?

It is generally not recommended to use fabric softeners with merino wool. They can coat the fibers, reducing the wool's natural properties like breathability and moisture-wicking. Use a wool-specific detergent instead.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels itchy or rough

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle. Re-washing with a wool conditioner may help soften the fibers. Ensure the garment is not too tight, as this can sometimes exacerbate perceived itchiness.

Shrinkage after washing

Avoid high washing temperatures and tumble drying. Always wash on a 30°C wool program and lay flat to dry. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the garment while damp.

Zip is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zip back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
