Is this blanket warm enough for winter?

On its own, no. It is a light cotton throw, so use it as a layer under a duvet or quilt in cold months. It works well alone in summer.

Does it shrink in the wash?

Cotton can shrink slightly, especially in hot water. Wash cold and tumble dry low to keep the size stable.

It covers a queen bed as a topper, but as a shared throw on a sofa it is snug for two adults. One person gets full coverage.

The waffle weave is open, so rings, zippers and pet claws can pull threads. Trim loose threads rather than pulling them.

Yes. The cotton weave lets air move, so it adds a little warmth without the clammy feel of polyester fleece.
