Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right blanket or throw for my needs?

Pick by use case: lightweight cotton or linen for warmer climates and layering, plush microfiber or fleece for warmth and softness, and weighted or knit options for relaxation and decor. Consider size (throw, twin, queen), insulation (tog or fabric weight), and care instructions to match your lifestyle

What sizes should I look for and how do they correspond to furniture?

Standard throws are about 50x60 inches and fit sofas and armchairs; larger throw/blanket sizes (up to 60x80 inches) work for couches and the foot of a bed. For full bed coverage choose sizes labeled twin/throw, full/queen, or king based on mattress dimensions

How much should I expect to pay for a good blanket or throw?

Prices vary by material and construction; budget options typically start under $50 while mid-range and specialty throws commonly fall between $50 and $150. Expect higher prices for heavyweight, designer, or high-quality natural fibers

What materials are most common and how do they differ in feel and care?

Common materials include cotton (breathable and machine-washable), polyester/microfiber (soft, durable, often easy-care), wool (warm, naturally insulating but may need special washing), and blends. Check care labels: some need gentle wash/dry or professional cleaning

Are there blankets designed for allergy sufferers or sensitive skin?

Yes—look for hypoallergenic or synthetic fibers like polyester/microfiber and tightly woven cotton; these resist dust mites and are often machine-washable. Avoid untreated wool or loosely woven materials if you have fiber sensitivity

How do I care for and clean a throw to keep it looking good?

Follow the manufacturer's care label; many cotton and polyester throws are machine-washable on gentle cycles and tumble-dry low, while wool, knit, or delicate throws may require hand washing, air drying, or dry cleaning to prevent shrinkage and damage

What should I consider when selecting a decorative throw versus a functional blanket?

For decor prioritize color, texture, and drape—lighter throws and knit styles add visual interest. For function prioritize warmth, thickness, and durable, easy-care fabrics; choose a balance if you want both looks and everyday usability
