Full details
This DILLING Children's Cotton Pointelle Strap Top in Blue (Geometric pattern, size 7-8) is designed for active kids seeking comfortable, breathable undergarments. Its key benefit is the use of soft, durable organic cotton that's gentle on sensitive skin, with an enclosed elastic to prevent direct contact. A potential consideration is that it's a strap top, which might not be suitable for all layering needs or preferences.

FAQs
What makes this top suitable for sensitive skin?
The top is made from 100% long-staple organic cotton, which is naturally soft and hypoallergenic. Additionally, the elastic within the straps is fully enclosed by cotton, preventing direct contact with the skin.
How do I wash this cotton top?
You can machine wash it at 40°C (104°F) with similar colors. Avoid using bleach and tumble dry on low heat. Do not dry clean.
Is the geometric pattern printed or woven?
The pointelle pattern is a knit structure, meaning the geometric design is created through the knitting process itself, not printed on.
What is the benefit of long-staple organic cotton?
Long-staple cotton fibers are longer, leading to a stronger, softer, and more durable fabric that pills less and feels smoother against the skin.
Can this top be worn on its own?
Yes, it can be worn on its own as a comfortable top, especially in warmer weather or for casual wear. It also functions perfectly as a base layer.
What does 'pointelle' mean in relation to the fabric?
Pointelle refers to a type of knitting technique that creates delicate, openwork patterns, often in geometric or floral designs, giving the fabric a light and airy appearance.
How do I know if this is the right size?
This particular item is size UK 7-8 years. Refer to general children's sizing charts for approximate height and age correlations if unsure.
Troubleshooting
Elastic feels too tight
Ensure the garment is the correct size. While enclosed, some initial stretch is normal and should adapt with wear. Gentle stretching by hand may help slightly.
Stitching unraveling on trim
If minor, carefully trim any loose threads. For significant unravelling, consider gentle hand-stitching or contacting customer support for potential defects.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure washing and drying instructions are followed precisely, especially regarding temperature. Air drying is often best to prevent shrinkage.
