- Is this blanket warm enough for winter?
- It is a breathable three-layer muslin, so it suits mild rooms and layering. For cold nights most parents add a sleep sack or a heavier blanket.
- Can I use it for swaddling a newborn?
- Yes, but the 36-inch square is large for a tight newborn wrap. Many parents fold it in half first or use a smaller swaddle for the first weeks.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low or line dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softener, which coat the muslin fibers.
- Does it shrink after washing?
- Cotton muslin can shrink slightly on the first hot wash. Cold washing and low heat keep the size close to 36 inches.
- Is it safe for unsupervised sleep?
- A loose blanket is not recommended in the crib for infants under one year. Use it for supervised tummy time, strollers and older toddlers.
- Where is the Floral Big Lovey Three-Layer Muslin Blanket cheapest?
- At Nordstrom, for $59.00, as of our latest check.
