Know before you buy
The 90% wool and 10% cotton blend utilizes the natural temperature-regulating properties of wool to keep you warm in the winter while remaining breathable enough to prevent overheating during warmer months.
Khadi refers to a traditional hand-spinning and hand-weaving process. This method results in a unique, organic texture that feels softer and more artisanal than mass-produced, machine-woven textiles.
Yes, the blanket is designed to be lightweight and versatile. At 48" x 92", it works well as a decorative throw for furniture, a bed topper, or a stylish wrap for cooler evenings.
Due to the delicate nature of the hand-spun fibers and the specific dyeing process, this blanket requires dry cleaning only to maintain its color and structural integrity.
These blankets are produced through fair trade cooperatives in India. This ensures that the artisans are paid fair wages and work in safe conditions, supporting traditional craftsmanship.
