What the AI looks for in Bed Blankets
- Size and overhang
- Buy the size labelled for your mattress. Size up if you have a deep mattress or share the bed with someone who pulls the covers. A blanket that does not reach past the mattress edges leaves gaps and causes tug-of-war.
- Fibre
- Wool for warmth with breathability, cotton for warm sleepers, fleece for budget. Fibre decides whether you sleep warm and dry or overheat.
- Weave
- Thermal and waffle weaves breathe. Dense plush and sherpa hold the most heat. The weave changes warmth almost as much as the fibre does.
Brands that matter
- Pendleton: Long-running wool blanket maker.
- Coyuchi: Organic cotton bedding.
- Bedsure: Budget fleece and sherpa.
What to avoid
- Wool blankets labelled dry clean only if you will not actually dry clean them.
- Sizes labelled 'full/queen' when you have a deep queen mattress, because they often run short.
