Pink Ducks Baby Blanket
A little parade of pale-pink ducklings across soft merino wool, backed in fleece and finished with your child's name. It suits the nursery chair as readily as the stroller, and it is the kind of blanket that gets kept rather than outgrown.
Each one is knit to order, so the name is part of the blanket rather than added to it afterwards.

Why merino wool
Merino is a natural, sustainable fiber, both renewable and biodegradable. It absorbs up to 30% of its own weight in moisture while still insulating, which keeps a baby dry and cozy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a good baby shower gift? It is one of the most requested personalized baby gifts we carry. A merino blanket knit with a child's name arrives before they do, and it is usually the one kept from the day long after the clothes and toys have gone.
What size is it, and what does it fit? Approximately 27.5" x 35.5". That covers a crib, a stroller or a carriage, and it works as a crib topper for a toddler. It is a lap size rather than a full crib blanket.
Can I have it in different colors? Yes. Shown here in pink with white ducks, but it can be ordered in any colorway. Please call us at 203-655-0185 and we will help you choose the shades and confirm everything before it is knit.
Ducks all over, or ducks at the hem? Both are made. Ducks all over reads playful and works well in a nursery. Ducks at the hem is the quieter of the two and lets the name sit on plain merino, which suits a gift that will be kept and used for years.
Is merino wool a good choice for a baby? It is the warmest and softest of the natural fibers, and it breathes, so a baby does not overheat under it. It is also naturally odor-resistant, which is why it needs washing far less often than cotton.
Can the date of birth be added? Yes, alongside the name. Most people add it when the baby has already arrived and leave it off when the blanket is a shower gift.
How do I wash it? Hand wash with care and lay flat to dry. Merino rarely needs washing, so airing it between uses is usually enough. The fleece backing keeps its softness through a gentle wash.
