Warm, yet light weight good for Canadian winters at home. Contains wool poly mix. My kids like it, I like it and even the dog will choose to sleep on it. Grey with maroon stitching is attractive enough for the living room .

It's nice to have a blanket I don't really care about. This thing is my poor used and abused workhorse whether I'm in the woods or on the tundra or just looking to pad whatever I've got in my rucksack. 10/10

I am convinced that most of the "bad reviews" by people that have bought wool blankets are from people that don't understand WOOL. Launder them CAREFULLY (gentle and with cold/cool water and with wool-specific cleaner (Woolite) and tumble dry them in gentle mode at low temperature. Also you don't want to launder them often, they don't need it, laundering should be infrequent or they would deteriorate. Of course any wool blanked will leave some lint the first couple times you clean them. I am stunned that this blanket only sells for less than $20? Mine has very nice consistent cloth, no voids or thin areas, and the same hue of color throughout. What amazes me most is the really attractive hemming around the perimeter to keep the blanket from fraying on the edges, it's quite attractive. THE COLOR is not like the picture, it's HEATHER GRAY WITH DARK GOLD HEMMING. Also, THIS BLANKET IS LIGHT WEIGHT, probably about 2.5 LB, whereas the typical winter wool blanked is about 4.5 LB. I bought it for this reason, I have heavier wool blankets for winter but wanted something for spring & fall that wasn't too warm. This one is PERFECT for that. It's May at the time of this writing, and the weather is still in the 60's most nights, and I've been using this blanket and it is perfect, it gives the nice natural feel of wool (doesn't suck the energy out of you like a synthetic) but isn't so thick that it smothers or overheats you. This would be a perfect blanket to keep in the car for emergencies, or for camping, it folds up smaller than a full weight wool blanket. Overall I am 110% happy with my purchase. ALSO NOTE THAT THIS IS A SMALLER SIZE of blanket, when put on my "full" size bed it just reaches the bottom and only hangs over the bottom about 4 inches, so if you want it to drape down further than that, this isn't the blanket for you.

I would give this blanket 6 stars if I could.This is a really nice military-type survival blanket. Military-type blankets were issued to be used on cots or to sleep on the ground. They are an appropriate size for someone to haul around all day in their backpack and still be able to stay warm at night. The description clearly states that it is 66” x 90”; a twin-sized blanket is 60”x 84”. It will not fit on a larger bed. I bought it with the intention of keeping it in my car for emergencies but it’s so pretty that I’m using it as a lap blanket. I bought another one to use in the car. It would be a really nice gift.It's very well made. The weaving is surprisingly tight and the stitching around the sides is exceptional. You can see from the photos that a serger was used to hem the blanket before the decorative stitching was added. I expect this blanket to hold up very well.The description says 80% wool but the label says that it’s 70% wool, 30% synthetic fibers. It is $17.99, so I don’t care. It will keep me warm even if it’s wet, it won’t burn easily, and I can put it in the washer. If you want to wash wool, it HAS to contain synthetic fibers so it won’t shrink (use the delicate cycle and cold water only). I avoid using the dryer.Wool isn’t necessarily fire retardant but it doesn’t burn easily. Synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and acrylic melt and stick to your skin; which makes a burn much worse – doctors have to remove the plastic before they can get to the burn. If you tossed a cotton sweater into a fire it would burn up, the synthetic one would be a melted pile of mess, and the wool one would be singed. If you know you’re going to be working around a fire, wear natural materials ONLY! (Including your shoes)Natural fibers are short in comparison to synthetic fibers and are going to pill and shed. When you put the blanket in the washer and dryer to remove the loose fibers, you are literally pulling the fibers out of the blanket – all of that fuzz is your blanket! Wool is covered with lanolin, which causes most liquids to just bead up on it and it’s easy to sponge off most dirt. When you wash your wool blanket, you’re removing the lanolin. Try not to wash or dry it. Sponging it off and airing it out is the best way to care for wool. I wear wool sweaters during the winter and wear a cotton t-shirt underneath to absorb perspiration and odors so I don’t have to wash them as often.When I opened the package, the blanket didn’t smell any worse than a new pair of jeans would when it came out of the same package. The odor was faint and slightly odd. If anything, it didn’t smell enough like lanolin. I hung it over the shower curtain rod for 24 hours to air it out and that little bit of odor is completely gone.This blanket is really soft but it isn’t merino wool or cashmere. I know this about wool and it doesn’t bother me.Last November, I bought another, more expensive wool blanket for my bed but I like this one much, much better.

The blanket smelled of napthalene prior to washing. Final size after tumble dry was 70"L x 60"W. Smells like nice wool now. I understand the use of pesticide when storing wool. I'm very happy with the thickness, quality and color of the blanket. There was no significant problem with lint during wash and dry. Aside from the obvious errors in the sales info, this blanket punches above its weight. Yes, it looks and feels like a nice bed blanket. Soft, thick, oatmeal color with royal maroon stitch. I'm an outdoor professional and I am happy with the 70% wool blanket for my winter warmth. Note: pictures of blanket after washing, sunlight vs shade.

I would rate these blankets 6/5 stars if I could. If you’re thinking about getting one of these at all, do not hesitate to order - in fact, not to sound like a blanket shill, but you should probably order more than one.I ordered five of these at once to give as Christmas gifts because of the value for the purported item. Having been shopping around for wool blankets for a while now, I was very skeptical due to how shockingly low the price was, as well as the fact that there are two different sizes described in different areas of the listing. However, I figured that even if the blankets were the smaller of the two sizes, and/or if they were a bit lower quality than suggested, I wouldn’t be out much - if they weren’t giftable, then worst case scenario I could donate them to my local warming shelter and they’d still serve a worthy purpose.BUT! They’re amazing! I’m so glad I took a chance on these blankets because they’re genuinely wonderful - like, I kind of feel like I won the lottery (albeit an admittedly smallish lottery). They’re huge, they’re incredibly soft right out of the box despite the high wool content (70%), they have zero smell (neither any sheepy smell nor the petroleum-y smell that camp blankets often come with), and they came packaged individually wrapped with a satin bow that matches the embroidered border stitching! They’re even in color and weave and they don’t have any of the composite look that many camp blankets have. They actually don’t seem like a camp blanket at all, tbh - definitely more like a blanket that is intended for bedding.There’s really nothing negative to say about them. The only thing I can think of to note is that I think the listing photos make them look like they’re cream-colored with red stitching, but in reality, they’re more of a light/medium, natural looking gray color and the stitching is a deep, violet-tinged wine red.Because these go above and beyond any of the other blankets I bought as gifts, I’m now returning all the others - all except one, because these blankets are so nice that I have literally no choice but to keep one for myself :)
