Caring for bamboo muslin swaddle blankets properly will help maintain their softness, durability, and vibrant colors. Here’s a general guide for care:
Washing:
- Use Gentle Detergent: Choose a mild, baby-friendly detergent that is free of harsh chemicals or fabric softeners.
- Wash in Cold Water: Cold or lukewarm water helps prevent shrinkage and preserve the fabric's softness.
- Delicate Cycle: Use the delicate or gentle cycle on your washing machine to reduce wear.
Drying:
- Air Dry Preferred: Hang or lay flat to dry to avoid over-drying, which can make the fabric less soft over time.
- Low Heat Tumble Dry: If using a dryer, select a low-heat or air-dry setting to minimize shrinkage and maintain the fabric's integrity.
Other Tips:
- Avoid Fabric Softeners and Bleach: These can damage the fibers and reduce the blanket's softness and lifespan.
- Wash Separately: Wash with like colors and avoid heavy items like jeans or towels to prevent pilling or snagging.
By following these steps, bamboo muslin swaddle blankets can stay soft and in great condition for years to come.
