Why soft organic cotton baby blanket make a good gift

  • New parents go through blankets quickly, so a washable cotton one gets plenty of use.
  • Gender-neutral colours and simple prints suit any baby and are easy to pass down.
  • Organic cotton appeals to parents who prefer natural fibres for their baby's things.

What to look for

  • Check for an organic cotton certification label rather than a vague natural fabric description.
  • Confirm the dimensions suit the intended use, such as swaddling, stroller covering or tummy time.
  • Compare muslin, knit and waffle weaves, which feel and stretch differently from one another.
