Review on EMME 6-Layer Cotton Muslin Blankets: Lightweight And Breathable Throw Blanket For Adults And Babies by John Maskirta

Before using it, I washed it using liquid detergent and a heavy-duty (whoops!) warm-cold cycle, and when I took it out of the washer, saw there was significant pilling all over it. After drying, most of the pilling came off and was deposited on the lint screen, but there was still some pilling on the blanket, which is disappointing. (Don't have this pilling problem with cotton gauze garments, even double-faced ones.) No instructions on the attached tag to use a gentle wash cycle, but it does say to air-dry and NOT tumble-dry, which, forget it – into the dryer it went, of course. But I'm thinking that a gentle wash cycle would have made a difference, so I'm posting my experience to warn other buyers in advance. Otherwise, a fluffy (because of tumble-drying!) and nice summer blanket, if slightly spendy.
