- The blankets are 47″ x 47″
- 100% machine washable and can be tumbled dry- in fact the more you wash, the softer they get (and they start out pretty darn soft to begin with!)
- The light open weave of the fabric allows air flow to help your baby’s body temperature to adjust naturally
The blanket is large but thin and the fabric has a little bit of stretch to it. I wish I would have had these a couple of months ago when my daughter was a newborn because they are perfect for swaddling. With swaddling, the baby is wrapped so there are multiple layers creating breathable warmth. As a single layer though, these blankets aren’t especially warm.
Aden + Anais was formed by Australian mothers who moved to the United States and found that the swaddling cloths made of the muslin fabric they wanted were too small for their babies, Aden and Anais. Further, every swaddling blanket that was large enough was made with fabric other than the muslin cloth that is so readily available for swaddling a baby in Australia. So they began making their own, adding baby hooded towel designs and baby washcloths to their soft muslin creations. Before long, they were being asked, “where did you get that great swaddling cloth?” by doctors, friends and mothers out and about who all wanted these muslin swaddling baby items for their own babies. Hence, the company “Aden + Anais” was born.

A crib sheet was the first thought I had in mind for these, but they would also be great as a ‘travel’ blankie! 🙂

These are absolutely the best blankets. The winter ones are warm enough for winter and they have a single layer one for summer. They wash well, are soft, the colors are wonderful, i wish i had known about them when i was doing my registry because i would have requested only these blankets. They are great as a nursing shield and because the fabric is so breathable you don’t feel like your child isn’t getting any air. My child sweats alot and these blankets allow his body to breath nicely. I can’t say enough about these blankets!
