- Is this a real knitted blanket?
- No. It is polyester fleece with a cable-knit pattern on the face. It looks like knit but does not stretch or drape like a wool or cotton knit.
- How big is it?
- It is 60 by 60 inches, a square throw. That is enough to cover one adult on a couch or to drape across a chair back.
- Can it go in the washing machine?
- Yes, polyester fleece is machine washable. Use cold water and low heat, and expect some pilling over time.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- It is a light throw, not a heavy blanket. Fleece holds warmth well for couch use, but it is not a substitute for a down or wool comforter.
- Does it shed or pill?
- Fleece does not shed like real knit yarn, but owners report pilling and static after repeated washes.
- Who is it best for?
- Shoppers who want a soft, washable decorative throw and do not need the weight or breathability of a real knit.
