What are Mini Blankets used for?
Our Mini Blankets are sized for young kids and babies: cribs and toddler beds, stroller and car rides, nap time, play, or anything cozy! The smaller size also makes them a thoughtful gift for new families.
What size is a Mini Blanket?
Mini Blankets are 30 by 40 inches and made for young kids and babies as a portable and lightweight option. In comparison, our Throw Blankets are full sized, 50 by 60 inches, and our Midi Blankets are in the middle at 36 by 48 inches.
For baby blankets, we recommend our Mini, but we dive into more use cases and different baby blanket sizes here: https://biquette.com/blogs/journal/baby-blanket-sizes
Can these knits be personalized?
Yes. We've curated a selection that can be personalized as a gift or for loved ones. Personalization is complimentary and includes adding name, initial, and / or year, so it's truly a 1-of-1 knit.
All personalized baby / kid knits can be found here: https://biquette.com/collections/personalized-baby-blankets
Are they durable enough for everyday use by a child?
Yes. Every piece is machine washable, pre-washed, and hand-steamed at our facility before shipping. Both cotton and wool are hard-wearing and hold up to the repeated washing and use that comes with kids.
What age is a Mini Blanket best for?
The 30 by 40 size works from newborn through the early kid years, as a crib and stroller blanket for babies and a nap or play blanket for toddlers and young children.
There's too many options, how do I decide between blankets and brands?
It's important to consider a blanket's fiber grade, size, design, construction, and finishing to decide whether a blanket will last with great quality and stay luxurious.
We've written a blanket buyer's guide around those 5 items (including an important distinction between knits and woven blankets) with a TLDR here: https://biquette.com/blogs/journal/how-to-choose-a-knit-throw-blanket
What are they made from?
All Mini Blankets (and every other Biquette knit) are fully made in small-batches and knitted fully in our Long Island facility with premium, luxurious natural fibers like super soft Egyptian cotton, organic cotton, and extra-fine merino wool.
These fibers are specifically chosen to be gentle and soft against skin, durable through plenty of washing, and provide a subtle luxurious quality that you can tell an immediate difference against synthetic fibers.
After knitting, everything is carefully hand steamed, packaged.
Who designs the patterns?
Our knit designs are intentionally curated and created in collaboration with independent artists, so each piece is an original work you won't find anywhere else.
