This blanket/throw is really nice. It's very soft and it's not heavy at all when it's on top of you, so it's lightweight, however it's surprisingly warm. The fact that it's slightly larger than the average throw makes this perfect for me, or anyone who is a bit taller or wants their feet and neck covered with just a throw. This is so nice when I'm on the couch, or don't want to get under the covers. It makes a great gift. I have the teal, and it's beautiful.See full review
