DUTIES INCLUDED
From the very first swaddle to the blanket they drag around the house as toddlers, this is the one that stays. Our muslin baby blanket is made from four layers of soft, pre-washed cotton muslin, light enough to breathe and cozy enough to feel secure, in a generous square that grows with your little one.
This muslin baby blanket is made from four layers of 100% cotton muslin and is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, so it’s tested for harmful substances. It’s pre-washed for softness from the first use and gets softer with every wash after that. At 47 × 47 inches, it’s large enough to use as a muslin swaddle for newborns, and it stays useful long after as a stroller blanket, a car-seat cover when parked, a playmat for tummy time, or a toddler blanket for the sofa. The sage is a soft green baby blanket.
Choose cream for a calm, neutral nursery, a pink baby blanket for a soft, classic touch, sage green for an easy, nature-inspired tone, or turquoise for something brighter and more playful. Tied with a ribbon, it makes a thoughtful baby shower gift or newborn gift that parents will actually use every day.

For safe sleep, keep loose blankets out of the crib for babies under 12 months.

Get To Know YOUR MUSLIN BLANKET
Yes, that's the reason muslin has been used for babies for generations. The loose cotton weave lets air pass through instead of trapping it, so your baby stays cozy without overheating. Our four layers add real warmth while keeping that airflow, which is why muslin works in both a warm nursery and a cool one.
Not until 12 months. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping the sleep space completely bare for the first year — no blankets, pillows, or bumpers — so a baby blanket is for waking hours, not the crib. After the first birthday, a lightweight muslin blanket is a gentle first choice.
47.2" × 47.2" (120 × 120 cm). That's swaddle size, not receiving size — most baby blankets sold in stores are around 30" × 40", which is too small to wrap a newborn properly. The extra width is what lets one blanket work as a swaddle in month one and a play mat, stroller layer, and nursing cover long after.
Three to four is the honest answer for a newborn. One in use, one in the wash, one in the bag. Parents who buy a single blanket almost always come back for a second.
Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low. Skip fabric softener — it coats the fibers and works against the weave. Muslin comes out of every wash a little softer than it went in.
