Super soft, Loose threads
I’m one of those people who needs to have a cover in bed, even in hot weather. A sheet works fine, but I saw this blanket and it looked more comfortable, and it is.
Looking at other reviews about shrinkage as well as the washing directions that came with the blanket, I washed it and air dried it before using. I’ve been sleeping under it for just over a week. As others have said, when it’s wet and hanging to dry, it has a stiff feel to it, but once it’s fully dry, it becomes super soft, cool to the touch, and it feels great against the skin.
So here’s the rub—I’ve only been using it a week, and everyday I’m clipping threads that have come loose. It’s not just 1-2 either, it’s all over the blanket. I’m afraid by the end of a month, I’ll have holes in it. I’ll try to remember to come back and update.
Update: It’s getting hot so brought my blanket out for the second summer. I clipped the loose threads off and there haven’t been many more. I still love the blanket and am glad I bought it.
