Drift Fleece Throw Blanket

The Drift Fleece Throw is the large, uncomplicated blanket every sofa needs one of. It is cut long enough to cover an adult properly rather than stopping at the shins, and the fleece is brushed on both sides so it feels the same whichever way it lands. There is no lining and no trim to stiffen the edges, which is why it drapes so easily over a chair back.

Fleece warms up fast, so it is comfortable within a minute of sitting down instead of needing to be worked up to temperature. It is also light, meaning warmth without pressure, which suits anyone who finds weighted blankets stifling. Velleora Home Decor specified an anti-pill finish so the surface stays smooth rather than bobbling across the seat area.

It packs down small for a car boot, a caravan or a spare room cupboard, and it survives frequent washing better than most natural fibres. Wash cool, tumble dry low and skip the fabric softener. Keep it clear of open fires and heaters, as with any synthetic textile.
