Warmer than a cuppa, lighter than a trifle, and toastier that Mr. Darcy's ripostes, this delightfully cozy wool blanket is quintessentially British. Woven in the UK from 100% pure new wool, this classic throw blanket is perfect for cozying up in the drawing room after a day spent trudging the moors or, you know, curling up with a book on the couch. The 60" x 72" size makes a very generous lap blanket and we love to use it as an additional layer at the foot of the bed (especially ideal if one bed-partner sleeps hot and the other cold).
Take Care: British wool has long been treasured for its warmth + durability. The Roman emperors who invaded the islands shortly after 55 BC cherished British woolens, saying it was "so fine it was comparable with a spider's web". They didn't put it in the dryer and neither should you. Spot clean, put in the washing machine on cold with a wool-suitable detergent, don't wring, and lay flat or hang to dry. If your blanket feels stiff after drying, you can brush it to reinvigorate the nap.
