swaddle cloth
Baby binding fabric
A swaddle cloth is a piece of fabric used to wrap an infant snugly, binding the arms close to the body.
The practice is ancient—the phrase swaddling clothes appears in biblical accounts of the newborn Jesus.
Modern swaddle cloths are often designed with fasteners or pockets to simplify wrapping.
