Blankets and Throw Blankets

Throw blankets for the hour before bed

Sleep does not begin when your head reaches the pillow. It begins earlier, in the hour when the house goes quiet and you let yourself sit down. A throw across your legs is the signal. It tells your body the day is over, long before you climb the stairs.

Our boho throw blankets are made for that hour, and for the ones after it: woven cotton with real weight, soft on bare skin, and patterned on both sides.

What makes boho throws worth keeping

Weight

Thin throws slide off. A heavy cotton weave drapes and stays where you put it, and the gentle pressure is part of why it feels so calming. A boho throw should feel like something when you pull it over you.

Weave

A tight weave resists pilling and snags, and it softens with every wash. Loose, open weaves look good for a month.

Pattern

A woven pattern runs through the cloth, so there is no print to crack or fade on the surface. On a patterned blanket the reverse is a second design. A colorful throw blanket also happens to be the simplest way to make a bed look slept in and loved.

A boho sofa throw or a boho bed throw

50 x 60 inches

The size for one person and one seat. Keep it on the arm of the sofa as your boho sofa throw, or on the reading chair.

60 x 80 inches

The size for sharing, and for the bed. As a boho bed throw it lies across the foot of a queen, where you can reach it at 4am when the room cools.

Caring for bohemian blankets

Machine wash cold and tumble dry low. Bohemian blankets with tassels do best washed on their own or in a laundry bag. Shake the blanket out while it is slightly damp and the tassels fall straight.

Choose the boho blanket you will want to see every evening. You will be reaching for it most nights.

Questions before you settle in

What is a boho throw blanket?

A boho throw blanket is a woven throw with a bohemian-style pattern, usually floral or geometric, often finished with tassels. Ours is a heavyweight cotton weave with a vintage floral pattern, reversible, in two sizes.

Are boho throw blankets warm or only decorative?

Boho throw blankets can be both, and it depends on the weight of the weave. Thin decorative throws add very little warmth. A heavyweight cotton throw like ours is warm enough for winter evenings on the sofa and as an extra layer over your bedding.

Will a pattern throw blanket fade in the wash?

A pattern throw blanket keeps its design best when the pattern is woven in, because there is no surface print to crack or peel. Wash it cold and dry it on low to look after the color.

Can I sleep under a bohemian throw blanket?

Yes, you can sleep under a bohemian throw blanket, and the 60 x 80 inch size is long enough for it. Cotton breathes, so it works for naps and warm nights on its own, and as an extra layer over a quilt or comforter when it is cold.

Is a cotton patterned blanket safe for sensitive skin?

A cotton patterned blanket is a good choice for sensitive skin because cotton is soft, breathable and free of the scratch that some wool and synthetic throws have. Ours is tested for harmful substances to the OEKO-TEX Standard 100.
