I love baby blankets! It just seems you can never have enough of them. I love all the cute designs, materials and the many uses you can get out of them. This blanket, shown below, is a 100% organic cotton muslin swaddling blanket. Muslin is a very thin material that is known to be eco-friendly and a material that is breathable, for the baby.
Across this blanket, you will see the words, "I love you", in several languages. How neat is this! I love all the different scripts and fonts of "I love you" and it's so symbolic for the precious cargo wrapped up in this soft blanket. The blanket is a generous 47.2 inches x 47.2 inches, plenty big enough to serve as a strolling or nursing cover, car seat cover, tummy time blanket plus much more.
The blanket is breathable, which help reduce the risks of overheating. The blanket is handmade in India, with the "I love you" design of the blanket, designed by Ellin Jane, an Australian illustration artists, who lives in London. Her work is inspired by places she's traveled and the experiences she's had, as well as the many people she's met. Her work can be found in various galleries in London, as well as in Berlin, Paris and Melbourne.
The "I Love You" blanket is sold by Joelle Boutin, the owner of atelieredel Etsy store. The blanket is shipped from Canada. Joelle has many other unique baby items in her store which include: comforters for baby crib, fitted crib sheets, throw pillows and swaddling blankets, just to name a few. Each one of these items features a neat and different design. I especially love the Peacock and the Star and Planet designs that she has.

It seems like now days, that the necessity items for newborns have come a long way. No longer do we see newborns coming from the hospital in their gown or their first little outfit, but now we see newborns with fashionable caps, hats, booties and more. I love to see a newborn in cute knitted hats. Knitted hats or caps can be simple and cute to extravagant knitted animal hats, featuring owls, bears and puppies.
This cute little newborn hat, seen here, is by Swaddlemesnugly by Grannie K, on Etsy. I love shopping Etsy because you will find many many hand made items that are not only unique in their style, but cute, adorable and very much affordable. Etsy owners work very hard to create and craft their masterpieces. They usually work one on one with their customers and are usually a one to three person team. A lot of love goes into their work and same goes for Swaddlemesnugly by Grannie K.
This yellow knitted hat, by Grannie K, is for ages 0-3 months, perfect for newborns coming home. The material is a washable acrylic knitted yarn that is very soft. The knitted hat is very durable and very well made (you can tell Grannie K takes pride in her work.) The knitted hat measures 12"-14" circumference and is knitted in the round to prevent any bulky seams that may irritate your newborn's head. The soft feel of this adorable knitted hat in my hands ensures me that this hat is just right for the newborn. It's a very warm and the lemon yellow is perfect for both genders.
This cute and adorable knitted hat is available in several colors: baby blue, grape multicolor, lemon yellow, mint green, lollipop multi, raspberry multicolor, baby pink and blue-white multi. If you don't know the gender of your baby just yet, the mint green and lemon yellow are the way to go. The other colors are perfect for either a boy or girl.
A Little About Grannie K
Grannie K is a retired wife, proud mother and devoted grannie. Sewing swaddle blankets for her grandson gave back the pleasure in creating her own hand made items that are not only fun, but sweet.
The name of her shop, SwaddleMeSnugly began when she realized, after reading Dr. Karp's book, how important it was to have a large square, single layer, breathable swaddle cloths. She began making some cotton flannel ones, Snug Softly - Happy newborn...
