FAQs
What makes merino wool good for babies?
Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and gentle on sensitive skin. It can keep babies warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm.
How do I know if the size is correct?
The size 12-18 months is suitable for babies and toddlers within that age range. Check the brand's specific size chart if available for precise measurements.
Can this be worn as an everyday suit?
Yes, it's designed for comfort and warmth, making it suitable for daily wear in cooler conditions, outdoor activities, or as cozy loungewear.
What does 'fold over feet and mittens' mean?
These are extensions of the fabric at the ends of the sleeves and legs that can be folded over to cover the hands and feet, providing extra warmth. They can also be folded back to allow for movement.
How often should I wash this suit?
Wash only when necessary to preserve the wool fibers. Airing out the garment between uses can often suffice. Follow the care instructions for washing.
Will the wool lose its warmth if it gets wet?
Merino wool retains a significant amount of its insulating properties even when damp, unlike cotton.
What causes the wool to fray?
Fraying is a natural characteristic of natural wool fibers, especially when brushed to create a fleece. It occurs with normal wear and washing due to friction.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Wash again on a gentle cycle with wool detergent.
Child seems too warm.
Merino wool is breathable, but if overheating occurs, consider using it in cooler temperatures or as a single layer rather than over multiple thick layers.
Fraying is more noticeable than expected.
This is a natural characteristic of unblended wool fleece. Gentle washing and minimal agitation will help. Ensure the garment fits appropriately, as too-tight clothing can exacerbate friction and fraying.
