Description
This woven throw is made for the Christmas months, patterned all over with fir sprigs in two tones of beige. It is 160cm long and 130cm wide, a generous size for one person to wrap up in on the sofa, or to lay across the foot of a bed. The cloth is a blend of 50% cotton, 33% polyester, 12% viscose and 5% acrylic, and at 1KG it has a reassuring weight in the hand without being bulky to fold away. Turn back a corner and the pattern swaps its tones on the reverse, so either face can sit uppermost.
The fir motif and the calm beige make it a natural fit for December, when the living room becomes the place everyone gathers. Drape it over the arm of a sofa or the back of an armchair, keep it folded in a basket by the fire for chilly evenings, or spread it over a reading chair tucked into the corner of a room. It sits best in a quiet, natural Christmas scheme of wood, linen and paper wrapping, and because the colour is so soft it does not look out of place once the decorations come down in January.
It is woven rather than printed, so the pattern runs through the cloth, and it finishes in a fringe of knotted tassels. Cotton gives the blend a soft, breathable handle, and polyester is a fibre that holds its shape well through repeated washing. Care is simple: it goes in the washing machine at 40 degrees, can be tumble dried on a low setting and takes a medium iron if you want it smoother. We like it folded in thirds lengthways and laid over a sofa arm so the fringe falls free, or paired with a cushion in a deeper tone to bring out the sprigs.
