This flannel blanket is super simple but very effective. I bring these with me wherever I go, no matter what time of year it is. They are easy to fold and throw into a diaper bag when on the go, since they are small and compact. I like to keep at least one in the house and one in the car for whatever comes up.
Use
Although this is great for chilly weather or a cozy night, this blanket can be used as many other things in a pinch. Whether it’s a changing pad, draped over the car seat to block out the sun, or an impromptu spit up towel, this blanket is perfect for having on hand for whatever comes up. Originally, I planned to use them as swaddle blankets when my daughter was first born, but I’ve found that I have used them for just about everything except that.
Design options
The only limiting options are the colors available. There are many different design patterns out there and most standard colors are usually available. Personally, I have a tan one which I think is great and a pink one with star designs which is also cute. It can be any size up to 60”, but the standard size is a 44” square.
