This 100% pashmina baby blanket is an elegant gift for an expectant mom that can also double as a scarf. Imported from Nepal, the pashmina is the wool spun from the chin and underbelly of Himalayan goats. The blanket is hand-dyed and loomed. This makes a wonderful keepsake that can be handed down. This can be customized with a hand-embroidered baby's name (extra $5 cost) in white letters. The blanket is 36" x 40 and can easily fit in a diaper bag or used as a stroller blanket or for light swaddling.
