Description
The Milas is a woven cotton throw in blue. At 160cm long and 130cm wide, it is a generous size for wrapping round your shoulders on the sofa or tucking over your knees. The pattern runs in bands from end to end: a zigzag border, rows of stacked bars and diamond motifs, then a finely striped edging, all woven into the fabric rather than printed on top. Full tassels finish the corners and give it a relaxed look. The fabric is 81% cotton, with small amounts of polyester, viscose, acrylic, polyamide and wool making up the rest of the blend.
This is a size that suits an armchair, a reading chair or the end of a sofa, where a throw is always within reach on a cold evening. Laid across the foot of a bed, it adds a band of pattern and an extra layer for chillier nights. It makes a thoughtful extra in a guest room, folded on the bed ready for a visitor who feels the cold. The blue sits well with pale walls, natural wood and woven baskets, and the geometric pattern brings interest to a plain sofa without shouting. It is a throw for everyday use rather than one kept for best, since it goes straight in the washing machine.
Care is straightforward. It machine washes at 40 degrees, can go in the tumble dryer on low, and can be ironed on a low setting. Cotton, which makes up most of the blend, is soft and breathes well. The throw weighs 1KG, enough to feel substantial on your lap while still folding down neatly. For styling, roll it loosely into a basket beside the sofa, or drape it over the back of a chair with the tassels hanging free so the zigzag border shows.
