Muslin Throw & Blankets

Muslin is an open, gauze-like cotton weave. One layer is light and airy; stacked into a muslin blanket of four or eight layers, it becomes a soft, breathable cover with real warmth. The more layers, the warmer and heavier the blanket, and every wash makes it softer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a muslin blanket good for adults?

Yes. Ours are cut for beds and sofas, from Twin to Oversize King, and the four- and eight-layer builds give adult-sized warmth. The 43x43 inch Baby Blanket size is also available.

Is a muslin blanket warm?

Warmth comes from the air held between layers. A 4-layer muslin blanket is light and breathable; an 8-layer one is warm enough for cooler nights on its own.

Muslin vs. waffle: what is the difference?

Muslin is soft and gauzy and gets softer with washing. Waffle has a raised honeycomb texture and a crisper hand.

How do I wash a muslin blanket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, wash dark colors separately the first time, avoid bleach, and tumble dry low or hang to dry. The crinkle is natural; no ironing is needed.

Where are they made and are they certified?

They are handwoven in Denizli, Turkey, from Turkish cotton. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certifies that the product meets the standard's limit values for harmful substances.
