The skin of your baby comes in contact with many things in a day. From the teddy bear he/she hugs at nap time to the toys she plays with throughout the day, there are lots of things that can make her skin break out into a rash. There are other things that can affect your baby's delicate skin. Dust in the air and chemicals used in cleaning products can both add to any dryness or rashes the baby is already suffering from.
When it comes to washcloths, organic bamboo washcloths are the best kind to use. Let’s first analyze the bamboo material and help you make an informed decision on the use of bamboo fabric in comparison to cotton.

Baby washcloths: bamboo vs cotton?

Bamboo is organic and has the qualities of being more durable, softer, water absorbent and hypoallergenic! There are a few facts that most people don't know about Bamboo Fabric so they are explained in detail here.

First off, what is Bamboo?

Bamboo is an organic plant grown material that has hollow tubes like straws inside it and because of this it has an ideal fibre to volume ratio and can hold large amounts of water inside the tubes.
Bamboo fabric is made from the top 6-8 inches layer called Bamboo Veneer or Bamboo Lumber which is then processed into the Core material that we use in Yarn Spinning.

Why do we want to use Bamboo Washcloths?

The top layer is what we want because it has a better fiber to volume ratio than cotton and any other hardwood. It means that the more volume we get from this material, the more efficient it will be in terms of consumption and pollution associated with producing it. This also means that by using less of this material, the environment will be affected less.
To give you an idea on how the bamboo fabric compares to the cotton fabric in terms of weight and durability, some testing was done and the following was found:
- A Rayon/Cotton blend T-shirt weighs 14 oz and a bamboo blend T-shirt weighs only 8 oz.
- A 100% cotton shirt at weighs 14 oz while a 100% bamboo shirt weighs only 10 oz.

What are the benefits of using Bamboo Washcloths for your baby?

- Less environmental impact - Bamboo has smaller fibers than cotton which means that it is easier to process, consume less energy during production which leaves a smaller carbon footprint compared to cotton.
