FAQs

Is Merino wool itchy for children?

DILLING uses fine Merino wool, which is known for its softness and lack of itchiness compared to traditional wool. It's designed to be comfortable against sensitive skin.

Can this t-shirt be worn year-round?

Yes, Merino wool's natural temperature-regulating properties make it suitable for year-round wear. It keeps children warm in winter and cool in summer by wicking away moisture.

How do I know if I'm using the right detergent?

Look for detergents labeled 'for wool', 'wool wash', or 'delicates'. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners.

What does the ribbed structure do?

The wide ribbed structure adds a subtle texture and visual interest to the t-shirt, making it more stylish than a basic smooth tee. It also contributes to the garment's flexibility.

Can I machine dry this t-shirt?

No, machine drying is not recommended as it can cause shrinkage and damage the wool fibers. Always air dry flat.

Is this t-shirt suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, Merino wool is naturally hypoallergenic and very soft, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin or allergies.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt feels scratchy after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and the correct wool wash cycle. Avoid fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry naturally.

Shrinking or misshaping.

Avoid high wash temperatures and tumble drying. Always follow the cold wash (max 30°C) and flat dry instructions.

Pilling on the fabric.

Some pilling is natural with wool. Use a fabric comb or shaver gently to remove any excess pills. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of your Merino wool t-shirt:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the t-shirt flat on a towel to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting (wool setting) while the garment is still slightly damp.
  4. Avoid: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the wool fibers.
