Frello Striped Cotton Throw - Yellow

This is a woven throw in yellow, laid out in broad stripes that alternate between a deeper and a paler shade of yellow and run the full length of the cloth. It measures 160cm long and 130cm wide, a generous size for an armchair or a sofa, big enough to pull around your shoulders or spread across your knees on a cold evening. The fabric is a blend of 52% cotton, 24% polyester, 11% viscose and 13% other fibre, and at 1.1KG it has a reassuring weight across your lap.

Drape it over the arm of a chair in the living room, fold it at the end of a bed, or keep it on the sofa for film nights and slow weekend afternoons. The yellow brings warmth to grey, navy and charcoal upholstery, and it sits just as happily against natural wood and white walls. Because it goes in the washing machine, it suits family rooms where a throw sees daily use. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming present for someone setting up a first home, since a throw never has to fit a particular bed or sofa.

The cloth is a dobby weave, a weave that builds a small, repeating texture into the fabric itself, so the surface has a gentle grain rather than a flat face. Cotton is soft against the skin, polyester is hard-wearing and viscose drapes well. A knotted tassel fringe finishes both ends, picking up both shades of the stripe. Care is straightforward: machine wash it at 30 degrees, tumble dry on a low heat and iron on a low setting where needed. For a relaxed look, fold it in thirds lengthways and let it hang loose over one arm of the sofa, with the fringe trailing towards the floor.
