It’s designed to regulate body heat, so you won’t be sweating underneath.

There’s no place a waffle knit blanket doesn’t look good, whether it’s spread out on your bed, arranged just so across your favorite chair or folded on the back of the couch. 

Customers love it for all the reasons why waffle knit blankets are so trendy right now: They’re great layering pieces, not too hot or too cold (consider them the Goldilocks of blankets), super soft and machine washable.

Waffle knit blankets are virtually always solid-colored, ensuring that they won’t clash with whatever decor vibe you have going on. The fabric looks fancier than fleece, but not in a showy way like cashmere can be. 

“I bought the Navy blue queen size blanket. True to the color in the picture. Beautiful pre-shrunk cotton blanket that is light/medium weight and feels soft. Looks great on the bed. I washed and dried it before putting it on the bed and the dryer did not additionally shrink it. Great quality blanket. Highly recommend!” —Rhonda Seiman

“We have 4 of these blankets in different sizes and colors. We love each one! Good quality!” —The Cravens

“Perfect summer weight blanket - love it is cotton - the color is exactly what I wanted. I searched a long time to find this blanket in this color of green. I am very pleased. Good price, delivered quickly. Soft and makes a good throw for our porch.” —LALA901

“I have bought so many blankets - I can’t sleep without a blanket and I live in south Florida. This is the perfect blanket, it sleeps cool. It’s also finished beautifully, the stitching is clean, no loose threads, the head and foot have a lovely cotton trim the same color as the blanket. I will buy more and buy again. My dog has small sharp claws and has not snagged it. The size is perfect-another review said it was too small to tuck in and that was not the case for me. I bought the color oatmeal and it’s a pretty deep cream/light beige - it’s a great warm neutral. I have it layered with ivory bedding and love the look.” —Jenni Eline
