A baby blanket made out of bamboo? This I had to see. Actually, I was so intrigued that I did a little research even before my Shi Shu blanket arrived. Bamboo is the fastest growing woody plant on earth, up to 12 inches a day. Bamboo fabric is notable for its soft feel, similar to silk or cashmere, and is very durable, anti-bacterial and breathable. A cross section of bamboo has micro gaps and holes which make the cloth able to absorb moisture and wick it away from the body. What could be better for a baby than that?

I was so pleased when my Shi Shu Baby Blanket arrived. It really is as soft as silk and absolutely beautiful! I love the soft pink color and the gorgeous, timeless pattern. I was pleased to give this blanket as a gift to my brand new granddaughter, Eleanor, who seems to be growing almost as fast as bamboo. At a generous 40 x 30 inches, Eleanor should be able to use this blanket well into her toddler years and then pass it on. Thank you, Shi Shu, for a high quality baby blanket that looks and feels like a luxury keepsake item that I hope will be handed down for many generations to come.
