Wool Baby Blankets
Things You Should Know

You should consider wool baby blankets as an important part of your baby's nursery. 100% pure organic wool is unbelievably soft and very soothing, even on delicate infant skin. Plus organic wool makes for a safe and healthy blanket based on its natural properties. You see, wool is possibly the best natural fiber to keep your baby warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

One of my favorite baby blankets is produced by LANACare.

Let's take a look at the main features:

• Made of organic merino wool
• Natural lanolin - reduces risk of allergies by repelling dust-mites
• Lanolin also provides wool with self-cleansing characteristics
• Kbt certified organic
• Size - 26 x 34 inches

Here is another option - a 100% Alpaca Wool Baby Blanket Soft and Silky Natural Wool.

• 100% pure alpaca wool
• Alpaca is a specialty luxury fiber
• Lanolin also provides wool with self-cleansing characteristics
• Reversible
• Size - 34 x 49 inches

These wool baby blankets are super soft because they are made of 100% pure alpaca wool. They are top quality and light weight yet very warm blankets that both you and your favorite baby will love. These are hand woven in Ecuador and our label is attached.

In case you did not know, alpaca is a specialty luxury fiber. More alpaca fiber is produced each year than cashmere or mohair. No other animal produces fiber that has the softness of cashmere, the luster of silk, the lightness of goose feathers, the durability of wool, and the warmth of a cozy fireplace. The alpaca has been domesticated (as versus its kin llama, which is primarily a work animal) and carefully bred for over 5,000 years as a luxury fiber-producing animal. Alpaca wool has been prized for centuries for its incredible combination of softness, lightness, and warmth. Alpaca is best cared for by dry cleaning although light soiling can frequently be removed with water, especially if the stain has not set.

The only drawback is that it is made in and shipped from Ecuador, South America. Shipping time is longer than usual. Shipped Postal Services within 24 hours of purchase with normal delivery time is 10 to 21 days.

Here are some reviews I read from Amazon.com:

“I was very impressed with this blanket. I got this for my infant to keep her warm in her bassinet. I was going for wool products wherever I could, and I definitely got my money's worth with this blanket.”

“When we use this blanket on her, we generally don't need another blanket unless it's really cold out (we live in Minnesota, so my really cold is subjective). I've used it myself and was amazed at how warm it kept me. That really boosted my confidence in using it for my daughter. I personally like the size. It's quite large for a newborn, and even at a year old now, it's still enough to cover and keep her warm.”

“I took a while to get to us (it has to go through customs) so if you are getting this as a gift, make sure you order at LEAST a month in advance, you might get it sooner, but at least you'll be covered. Personally, it's worth it.”

“A great price for a lovely baby gift! This is a quality made, super soft blanket that can be used in warm or cold weather. A great find!”
