Your English is just fine!. One year old her coat is still maturing. How-ever what concerns me is your description of her coat's texture. Once your puppy loses their puppy coat, which is usually by 7-9mths old. The true silk grows in Silk. Are you sure this coat is rough to the touch, ie if you gently brush the back of your hand over a cleanly washed and blowdried coat, you feel harshness? Maybe she has a Thick Silk Coat, very desirable. How-ever with the very dark coat, that can go with a soft or cottony coat.
Sigh you need her coat examined by an expert Yorkie Breeder.
Wrapping, yes moustaches, topknot and body must be wrapped.
Now to silkify that coat, you need Top Quality Shampoos n Conditioners. OMG, there is a line available in Europe..... I have to ask my breeder.
But weekly you need to nuture that coat!. Great food, water, exercise. Then you need wrapping with appropiate oil/conditoner or mix there of.
Yorkie are one of the "hardest" breeds to maintain in show condition. I know I have one.
Private message me if you have more questions.
