Cozy Blankets for the Sofa – The Editorial Team’s 7 Favorites
1. Woven Wool Blanket Blok by Manufactum
Color-wise, the Blok blanket seems Scandinavian. However, it comes from a Welsh woolen mill. Blue and yellow create a harmonious mix here. Especially the blue tone stands out in combination with the blanket’s base color (ecru) thanks to the herringbone pattern. The twisted fringes at both ends, also in ecru, symbolize an important characteristic of a wool blanket. With this model, the cold season can be stylishly and warmly tackled. Dimensions: 150 x 183 cm. Price: approximately 95 euros from Manufactum.

What looks like the soft, fluffy fur of a sheep is, of course, just an imitation, ensuring no animals were harmed. You can snuggle up with this plaid without worry. As special as the outer material is, the color choice is equally gentle: The light gray once again establishes a natural connection. The underside of the blanket is made of 100% cotton. Dimensions: 110 x 150 cm. Price: approximately 70 euros from H&M Home.
3. Fleece Blanket Soft-Greeny by Zoeppritz
With the Soft-Greeny fleece blanket, you’re doing something good not only for yourself but also for the environment. The organic cotton used here is certified with the GOTS seal, one of the world’s most important standards for processing textiles made from organically produced natural fibers. This fleece blanket stands for sustainability and conscious resource management. Plus, it’s wonderfully soft to snuggle with. The rather minimalist design of the blanket is enhanced by a wide border on all four sides in the so-called whipstitch. Dimensions: 140 x 190 cm. Price: approximately 139 euros from Zoeppritz.

4. Knit Blanket Dunäng by Ikea
This blanket vaguely resembles a cozy winter sweater. Clearly, the typical knit look characterizes the Dunäng blanket. But be careful, what applies to your favorite sweater also applies to this blanket: Don’t pull any threads. However, you can take it to the sofa or bed for cuddling. The polyacrylic-wool blend is wonderfully soft and also temperature-regulating and dirt-repellent. Dimensions: 130 x 180 cm. Price: approximately 29 euros from Ikea.

5. Velour Blanket Lisbon by Hessnatur
Both natural and cozy, this blanket from Hessnatur is made from velvety-soft organic cotton sourced from organic farming in Turkey and sustainably manufactured in Austria. The ornamental pattern, however, is reminiscent of the design of popular Portuguese Azulejos tiles, creating a connection to the name Lisbon. Thanks to the reddish-warm tones and fine organic quality, a cozy, warm, and calming feeling is created. Typical for a velour blanket of this kind are the distinctly stitched edges. Dimensions: 150 x 200 cm. Price: approximately 90 euros from Hessnatur.
6. Faux Fur Blanket Lucia by Maisons du Monde
Blanket Lucia is not only something to snuggle with but also a feast for the eyes: Here, a generous herringbone pattern meets a rosy shimmer. Both in combination give this cozy blanket a sophisticated touch. It would almost be a miracle if you started to feel cold with this model. Dimensions: 150 x 230 cm. Price: approximately 25 euros from Maisons du Monde.

7. Cashmere Blanket Foligno by Urbanara
If you want to be sure you won’t feel cold in the upcoming fall-winter season, choose the Cashmere Blanket Foligno.

But the fact that this woven blanket is certified with the Standard 100 by OEKO-Tex also ensures high-quality, stylish cuddling. The modern design with a black and cream zigzag pattern and a colored contrast border is also special. Six colors are available. Dimensions: 140 x 200 cm. Price: approximately 349 euros from Urbanara.
