FAQs

Is this dress suitable for newborns?

This specific variant is sized for 9-12 months. DILLING offers other sizes, but please check the specific size guide for newborn suitability.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a cold, gentle wool cycle with a wool-specific detergent. Always lay flat to dry.

Why is Merino wool recommended for babies?

Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, making it ideal for sensitive baby skin and active infants.

What makes the knitting technique special?

The knitting technique is designed to offer great flexibility and a loose fit, allowing your baby to move and play freely without restriction.

Can this dress be used as sleepwear?

No, this garment is not intended for sleepwear. It is designed for daytime wear and active play.

How do I care for the ruffle details?

The ruffle details are part of the knit fabric and should be cared for according to the general Merino wool washing instructions. Avoid harsh handling or snagging.

What other colors or sizes are available?

This guide focuses on the Pink, 9-12 months variant. Please check the product catalog for availability in other colors and sizes.

Troubleshooting

Dress seems to have lost its shape after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a cold/gentle wash cycle. Lay the garment flat to dry, re-shaping it while damp. Avoid machine drying.

Baby feels too warm or too cold.

Merino wool is temperature-regulating, but consider the ambient temperature and other layers. For warmer conditions, ensure it's the only layer or paired with very light items. For colder conditions, add warmer leggings and a sweater.

Small snags or pulls in the fabric.

Gently try to pull the snagged yarn back through to the inside of the garment. Avoid cutting the yarn, as this can create a hole. For significant damage, professional repair may be needed.
