Description
This woven cotton throw is covered edge to edge in an illustrated mushroom pattern: broad caps, slender stems and finely drawn gills, all worked in a multicoloured palette and finished with a loose fringe along its edges. It measures 160cm long and 130cm wide, a generous size for wrapping round your shoulders on the sofa or spreading over your knees in a chair. The cloth is a blend of 54% cotton, 36% polyester, 9% viscose and 1% wool. Cotton is soft and breathable, while polyester adds strength and helps a woven cloth keep its shape. At 1.1KG it has a satisfying weight and falls in heavy, easy folds.
We see it first in a child's bedroom or playroom, where the mushrooms give young eyes something to study and the size suits a reading corner, a beanbag or a floor den. It is just as much at home in a grown-up living room, folded over the arm of a sofa or armchair, laid across the end of a bed, or kept in a basket by the sofa for cooler evenings. The pattern is woven rather than printed, so it shows on both faces of the cloth and looks right whichever side lands uppermost.
Care is straightforward, which matters for anything that lives in a family room. 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 crisper folds after drying. Being machine washable, it can be used every day rather than saved for best. For styling, let the mushrooms lead: the throw sits most happily against plain, natural textures such as woven baskets, bouclé and wood, where its busy multicoloured pattern has room to breathe. The styling props shown are not included.
