Our 3-in-1 merino wool blanket is specially designed with a fine knit , unlike many other merino wool products that are often coarsely knitted and therefore less suitable for swaddling. The fine knit of our blanket feels like a second skin and can be compared to the membranes in the womb: it gently confines your baby, but moves with him, so that your child is not restricted in his movements. This makes our blanket perfect for skin-to-skin contact, for swaddling, cuddling or to use as a crib or wrap.
