In preparing for the arrival of their babies, a pair of Aussie mothers who had moved from Australia to the United States, went in search of muslin wraps like the ones they had back home. None of the wraps they found on the market in the US were the right size, nor were the materials used the same soft, breathable muslin cotton they were used to in Australia. They felt that muslin was the most ideal fabric to use on the delicate skin of their newborns and so they decided to make their own. Aden and Anais products also include a line of soft cotton towels and muslin washcloths.
