Muslin is a loosely woven cotton fabric that gets its name from Mosul, a city in Iraq, where it was first produced. Muslin fabric comes in various sizes — smaller muslin squares are great for wiping, while larger ones are ideal for swaddling. Due to its versatility, it is no wonder why muslin fabric is a staple addition to any household with little ones. And you can never have too many muslins! Here are 5 top reasons why they are excellent for babies.
1. Soft and gentle
Muslin fabric is usually made of cotton or bamboo, which makes them soft and gentle on your baby's delicate skin. Unlike any other fabric, the more you wash the muslin cloth, the softer it gets!
2. Highly absorbent
Muslin fabric is highly absorbent and can quickly soak up any spills or messes — which makes it the perfect choice for burp cloths and bibs.
3. Lightweight and breathable
Due to their loose weaves, muslin fabric is very lightweight and breathable. This means it can help prevent overheating and keep your baby comfortable by allowing air to circulate around your baby's skin.
4. Durable
Muslin fabric is durable and can withstand multiple washes and uses — which makes it a super cost-effective choice for parents who are investing in high-quality baby goods.
5. Versatile
Muslin fabric is made for a variety of purposes and is universal. It serves as a swaddle, blanket, nursing cover, stroller cover, and more.
