11 Beautiful Blankets That Will Have You Covered This Winter

There’s a distinct nip in the air, so check out the blankets we’re daydreaming about cosying up in this autumn. If you’re in the market for a brand-new blanket, we’ve got you covered, literally…

This season, blues, greens, creams and greys are dominating textiles with light, neutral tones that will complement most interior palettes. Checks and tartans are refined to thin grids while plump mohairs and fat knits are all in vogue. We always have time for thick tassels while pom-poms are the icing on the cake. Most of the Irish mills are up on the latest trends, with great new-season designs from Foxford, John Hanly, Mourne Textiles, Cushendale and Avoca.
