Rabbit Skins Infant Baby Rib Layette | 4406

Description

The Rabbit Skins 4406 is the infant layette that hospitals, birthing centers, and baby apparel brands reach for when they need a soft, printable blank for newborns. Built from 100% combed ringspun cotton in a 1×1 baby rib knit, it has the gentle stretch and breathability that infant garments require — without the stiffness that cheaper blanks carry out of the package.

Who Orders It

Hospitals and birthing centers ordering custom welcome home sets. Daycares and early childhood programs with branded infant gear. Baby apparel brands launching their first product line. Photographers bundling branded layettes for newborn sessions. Nonprofits running baby supply drives with custom-printed donation items. Churches and religious organizations with baptism or dedication programs.

Decoration

The combed ringspun cotton surface takes screen printing cleanly — water-based inks are the standard for infant wear and lay down smooth on this fabric. The baby rib knit has natural stretch, so designs should account for slight image expansion when worn. Keep print areas sized appropriately for infant proportions. Heat transfer works well for small runs or detailed designs. Embroidery is possible on light coverage designs, but the lightweight rib knit is better suited to print methods for infant comfort.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on infant layettes?
Screen printing with water-based inks is the industry standard for infant apparel — soft hand feel, no plastisol residue against newborn skin. Heat transfer works for smaller quantities or complex multi-color designs.

Is this good for hospital welcome baby programs?
Yes. The lap shoulder construction makes it easy for staff or new parents to dress newborns, and the soft rib knit is gentle on sensitive skin. Hospitals and birthing centers are among the most common buyers for custom-printed 4406 layettes.

How does the sizing run?
Sized for newborns and young infants. The 1×1 rib knit provides natural stretch for a comfortable fit without being restrictive. Check the size chart for specific measurements by age range.
