Blankets and Throws FAQ

From late nights out on the patio to snuggling up with the kids on the couch, throws and blankets are accents that everyone needs to have. These warm and cozy pieces come in a variety of styles, prints and materials that can complement and accent your room's aesthetic. With a range of blankets and throws that span from soft fleece to handwoven to faux fur, Ashley has a blanket or throw that's just for you. If you have additional questions about selection or need advice choosing the right throw, our FAQ section below can help guide your decision.

What is a throw blanket?

A throw blanket is a small, versatile covering designed primarily for use in living spaces rather than as primary bedding. You will typically find throws draped over the back of a couch, folded at the foot of a bed, or resting on an accent chair. Their primary purpose is to provide a quick layer of warmth for someone relaxing, reading, or watching television, without the bulk and hassle of a full-sized bed blanket. Throws offer an easy way to add color or texture to a room without major changes to your furniture.

What is the difference between a throw and a blanket?

Throws and blankets differ mainly in size and intended use. Blankets are made to cover a whole bed, matching standard mattress sizes for full coverage and nighttime warmth. Throws are smaller, typically about 50 by 60 inches, designed for use on sofas or chairs to provide extra comfort or a decorative touch in living spaces.

While blankets are usually simple and functional for layering and frequent washing, throws come in a range of patterns, textures, and materials, like chunky knits or faux fur and may require more delicate care. Throws are ideal for adding style or quick warmth while relaxing, whereas blankets are essential bedding for everyday sleep.

How big is a throw blanket?

The most common size for a sofa throw blanket is 50 inches by 60 inches. This size provides ample coverage for the legs and torso of an adult sitting on a couch and also drapes neatly over the back of a standard armchair or sofa for decorative purposes. Smaller options, such as the 40x50 throw, are ideal as lap blankets. For greater coverage, oversized throws measuring around 60x80 inches can fully cover most of a sofa or be layered for extra warmth. Additionally, specialty throws may come in square or unique shapes, making them a versatile addition to your sofa, poufs, or throw pillows.

Which kind of material is best for a sofa throw?

Here's a quick guide to common materials:

Cotton: Soft, breathable, and naturally hypoallergenic, cotton blankets and throws are lightweight, easy to wash, and suitable for year-round use, making them ideal for all climates and sensitive skin.

Fleece and Microfiber: Made from polyester, these materials offer exceptional softness, warmth without heaviness, and are highly durable, stain-resistant, and quick-drying—perfect for busy households and frequent use.

Faux Fur: Faux fur blankets provide luxurious texture and deep warmth with a heavier feel, often used as decorative throws and requiring gentle spot cleaning or dry cleaning to maintain appearance.

Wool and Alpaca: These natural fibers are prized for excellent warmth and moisture-wicking, with alpaca being softer and less itchy than traditional wool, and both require delicate care while helping regulate body temperature.

Chunky Knits: Chunky knit blankets are made from thick yarn for bold, decorative style and are best for accent pieces or light layering since their open weave makes them less practical for main warmth.

Explore Ashley's collection to find options in all these materials, helping you choose the right blanket for your needs and style preferences.

What is the coolest blanket for summer?

The best blankets for hot sleepers in summer are made from lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking materials such as cotton with a percale weave, linen, bamboo-derived rayon, or Tencel that help regulate your body temperature and keep you comfortable throughout the night; while synthetic "cooling" blankets do provide an initial cool touch and can wick heat to some extent, natural fabric options like linen or bamboo consistently offer superior airflow and dryness, making them ideal for those seeking a reliably cooler sleep experience even during the warmest months.

How to wash throw blankets?

There are two main ways to clean blankets. Most throw blankets for couches and beds are made with easy-care fibers and textiles, meaning that they are machine washable. Just throw the blankets in with your clothes and other fabrics and follow the drying instructions.

Other blankets are dry-clean only; these pieces are made with special fibers that can shrink when washed improperly. So, take them to the experts when they need a good clean. Always check the manufacturer's cleaning guide before proceeding.
