- Is this blanket warm enough on its own?
- It is a light cotton blanket, so it works alone in mild weather or as a layer over sheets. For cold rooms, pair it with a duvet or quilt.
- What size bed does it fit?
- It is sized for a twin bed at 66 by 90 inches. The extra length lets it drape over the sides and foot of the bed.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low. Hot water and high heat are the usual causes of cotton shrinkage and pilling.
- Is it certified safe for sensitive skin?
- Yes, it carries OEKO-TEX certification, which means it has been tested for harmful substances. That makes it a reasonable choice for people with sensitive skin.
- Is it a good alternative to a fleece blanket?
- If you overheat under fleece, yes. Cotton breathes better and feels cooler, but it is less plush and less warm.
