I've been asked what a Doona is a lot lately, so here it is....
1. Doona
Doona is Australian slang for quilt or blanket.It was 7º so she decided to walk around the house wrapped in a doona rather then put clothes on.2. Doona
The doona differs fron the quilt, eider-down and duvet in that it has a removable, washable cover thus eliminating the need for cover sheet and blankets. The word is Swedish implying that it is filled with down, although the great technical advance was that it was actually filled with non-allergenic polypropeline padding. The name comes from an advertising campaign in the 1960's in Australia by the furniture company, Ikea. We also have Dancing Doona's but I'll leave that up to your imagination...
