FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, DILLING's merino wool is known for its fine fibers, which make it exceptionally soft and gentle, making it suitable for children with sensitive skin.

How does merino wool keep my child cool?

Merino wool is breathable and can wick moisture away from the skin. In warmer conditions, this evaporation process helps to cool the body.

Can this roll neck be worn year-round?

Absolutely. The natural temperature-regulating properties of merino wool allow it to keep your child warm in cold weather and cool on warmer days.

What is the difference between this and a regular wool sweater?

This is made from fine, organic merino wool which is significantly softer and less itchy than traditional wool. It's also lighter and designed for layering or as a primary layer.

How often should I wash the merino wool top?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can often air it out instead of washing after each wear. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.

Does the roll neck stretch out easily?

The ribbed knit structure provides excellent stretch and flexibility, allowing for comfortable movement. With proper care, it should retain its shape.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels scratchy after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the recommended washing temperature. Merino wool should feel soft; a change may indicate improper care.

Top loses its shape.

Avoid wringing or stretching the garment when wet. Always lay flat to dry. Reshape the garment gently while damp if needed.

Pilling occurs on the surface.

Some pilling is natural with merino wool. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or comb designed for wool. Frequent washing can sometimes exacerbate this.
