What is a Throw Blanket?

A throw blanket is a home accessory that is approximately 50" x 60" in size. It is smaller and lighter weight than a quilt, duvet, or comforter, though it can be used on top of a bed for decoration to match the room's color scheme or theme. It is also often used in a living room for extra warmth, décor, or coziness on the couch.

Types of throw blankets

Throw blankets can be found in just about every type of fabric these days. From flannel and microfiber to luxury fabrics like cashmere and bamboo, there truly is a throw (or two!) for everyone.

How to wash a throw blanket

Depending on your type of throw blanket, you may be able to machine wash it on normal or gentle; however, some fabrics, like cashmere, require hand washing or dry cleaning. Check your blanket's care instructions for more information.
