These blankets are amazing. They are 100% pure cotton muslin blankets that are lightweight and breathable. We have used it from the moment my kids were born to this very day. They do pull easily if caught on something but they are compatible for travel and they wash like a dream. My son suffers from nose bleeds which have unfortunately christened his blanket more than once and I don't even have to pre soak like I do with most of his clothes. And you can sometimes find them at winners for a fraction of the original retail price. They make a great gift for any new parent.
