How do I care for lightweight muslin layers when travelling in Bali?

Lightweight muslin layers wash and dry easily while travelling. Hand wash with a little gentle soap and hang to dry — muslin's open weave means it typically dries within one to two hours in Bali's heat. For machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid wringing tightly, which can pull the shape over time.

How do I size for a baby who's between sizes?

When a baby is between sizes, the better call is to size up. A slightly larger layer means more airflow, less restriction, and more wear as your baby grows into it. When you're travelling light and washing frequently, fewer pieces that last longer is always the smarter approach.

My baby has sensitive skin. Is muslin cotton a safe everyday choice in the tropics?

Muslin cotton is a widely used choice for babies with sensitive skin in warm climates because it sits lightly on the surface, doesn't trap heat against the body, and its open weave is gentler than denser fabrics that press flat against the skin. Every baby is different, so if your child has a diagnosed skin condition, check with your paediatrician about which fabrics to prioritise.
