FAQs
Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, organic merino wool is known for its softness and is naturally hypoallergenic, making it an excellent choice for babies with sensitive skin.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The one-piece should fit snugly but comfortably. It should allow for free movement without being baggy. Check the size guide provided by DILLING for specific measurements.
Can this be worn as outerwear?
While it provides warmth, it's primarily designed as a base layer or indoor wear. For outdoor activities in cooler weather, it should be worn under other protective clothing.
Why is it footless?
The footless design offers greater flexibility and allows babies to move their feet freely. It also means the garment can grow with your baby for a longer period, as foot length can vary significantly.
How often should I wash this garment?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and requires less frequent washing than synthetic materials. Wash when visibly soiled or after several wears. Airing it out between uses can help refresh the garment.
What is the American closure neckline?
The American closure has an overlap on each shoulder. This allows the neckline to be widened and pulled down over the shoulders if needed, which is helpful for changing or if an accident occurs outside the diaper area, avoiding the need to pull it over the baby's head.
Does this garment have enclosed feet?
No, this specific model is designed without enclosed feet. It features flexible cuffs around the wrists and ankles.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy or rough.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent. Re-wash using a wool program with a gentle wool detergent. Merino wool is naturally soft, so itchiness may indicate improper washing or a need for a break-in period.
Garment has shrunk after washing.
This usually occurs from washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. Always follow the 30°C wool program and lay flat to dry. For minor shrinkage, a gentle stretch while damp might help, but prevention is key.
Snaps are difficult to fasten or unfasten.
Ensure the fabric around the snaps is flat and not bunched. If they feel stiff, try working them a few times gently. Check that the correct size is being used; an overly tight garment can strain the snaps.
