Best muslin bed covers under $50

Top pick: Love's cabin 6-layer cotton muslin, king (108 x 90 in). It's the only one here sized as a true bed covering rather than a throw, and six layers of cotton gauze give that airy, breathable feel that works year-round — light enough for summer, layerable in winter.

Who the others suit:

• Kozyhvn queen (90 x 90) — if you want a proper queen-size drape and a softer colour; note it ships from Italy, so duties may apply.
• RILIHO 50 x 70 throw — the best-reviewed of the bunch, for a couch or a twin bed.
• EMME throw — a beige, slightly larger throw; a pre-owned one is listed too if you don't mind secondhand.
• Crane Baby 6-layer — smaller, nursery-scale, in grey or pink.
• Yayiaclooher — a budget beige option in size L.

Skip the Comfy Cubs and Exclusivo Mezcla if six layers is the point — neither states it.
