Soft and breathable. Can be used to lay baby down on as a nursing cover, carseat cover. I wear it around my neck until i need it while we are out.

These are the softest muslin blankies i've ever found. They've already been washed several times, and still appear new. I'm quite particular about the softness of cotton and these swaddles do the trick.

Would never use cheese cloth next to a baby's skin. Because it's so huge it also tends to go everywhere around thus making it a suffocation hazard.

No, this really isn't a giftable item unless you want people thinking you're a cheapskate. Absolutely not what is pictured. However, the graphic is cut off on a couple of the blankets.
