I LOVE this blanket. It's heavy weight which I love. Keeps me cozy & warm & since I sleep with windows open all year round it's great in this much cooler weather. I know it's a bit pricey for most people but I would sure recommend it for everyone. It's nice looking too.
I went from a down comforter to just this blanket, it is warm, it is lighter and it breathes better. I may need just a bit more in the depths of winter, but this blanket is the best covering I have ever had. Looks sharp too.
I don't mind the wool on the skin, it isn't as comfortable as a cotton sheet of course but it doesn't irritate if your skin comes into contact with it.
Wonderful blanket for yourself, or as a gift. This is the second one I purchased, the first for me and the second for my Son and his new wife as a wedding present. Highly recommend to anyone and the history that goes with it.
