Why choose merino wool for your child?
Merino wool has many good properties that are beneficial in several ways. Merino wool does not itch. Wool is measured in "microns", which is a unit of measurement that denotes the diameter of the wool fiber in the yarn, and the lower the number, the finer the wool and less itchy. Wool with a micron count above 28 tends to itch, whereas wool with a micron count below 28 does not itch. Merino wool is a perfect material for children with delicate and sensitive skin, as the micron number is between 17.5 and 24.

Merino wool is temperature regulating and water absorbent. Merino wool consists of very fine and curled fibers that create insulating air pockets. The small air pockets help to absorb and trap the moisture that evaporates from the body, and act as an extra layer of warmth that helps maintain body temperature. Merino wool can absorb up to 35% of its own weight in water without feeling wet, which makes the wool a material that can be used all year round.

Småfolk's merino wool is easy to clean. A good property of wool is that it is self-cleaning. The wool naturally contains lanolin, which combines with the skin's moisture and salts (or urine) and saponifies, a process that causes sweat odors to disappear. We recommend hanging the wool out for airing or over the back of a chair rather than washing, as long as the clothes have not been ordered. Small people's wool has been given an easy-care treatment so that it can be washed in an ordinary. washing machine. Småfolk recommends washing with detergent designed specifically for wool care. The raw wool is 100% mulesing free. The wool is treated and processed according to Oeko-tex standard 100.
