FAQs
Is this bodysuit suitable for newborns?
Yes, it is designed for infants and is made from very soft materials suitable for sensitive newborn skin. Ensure you select the appropriate size.
How do I wash the merino wool and silk blend?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to air dry.
Will the bodysuit shrink if I wash it?
When washed and dried according to the care instructions, the wool fibers are designed to contract slightly and return the garment to its original shape. Avoid excessive heat during washing or drying, which could lead to shrinkage.
Can this be worn in all seasons?
Yes, the natural thermoregulating properties of merino wool and silk make it suitable for year-round wear. It helps keep babies warm in colder temperatures and cool in warmer weather.
What is pointelle pattern?
Pointelle is a type of knitted fabric that has a pattern of eyelets or small holes, often created in delicate, decorative designs. In this bodysuit, it adds a subtle textured design.
Why does the material stretch when worn?
Merino wool is naturally elastic. The fibers may stretch slightly when the garment is worn due to movement and body heat, but this is designed to be temporary and reversible after washing.
What is the benefit of the silk blend?
The addition of silk enhances the softness and smoothness of the fabric, making it feel even more luxurious against the skin, while also contributing to its breathability and thermoregulation.
Troubleshooting
Bodysuit seems stretched out after wear
This is normal for wool fibers. After washing and air drying according to instructions, the wool fibers will contract, and the bodysuit should return to its original shape.
Skin irritation or discomfort
Ensure the care label is followed precisely, especially regarding wash temperature and detergent. Check for any accidental exposure to harsh chemicals. If irritation persists, discontinue use.
Bodysuit feels stiff after washing
This can sometimes happen with wool. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can affect the natural softness of the fibers.
