There are a few things that can bring magic to a living space—the rare candle scent everyone loves, a piece of art that never fails to start a conversation, or a throw blanket with the power to make you forget about the worst of weather happening outside. Right now, we’re zeroing in on that last point—because when the temperatures dip and the sun is nowhere to be found, there really is nothing better than losing yourself in a bundle of warmth at the end of a long day.
Vogue’s Favorite Throw Blankets:
The Cream Classic
The Elder Statesman cashmere and cotton-blend blanket
Jump to review
Merino or alpaca, cotton or cashmere, fringe or no fringe—you’ve got some decisions to make. And while you’ve probably heard “you can never have too many throw blankets” (likely from someone who, objectively, does have too many throw blankets), we believe a limit does exist. Much like a piece of art, an heirloom-worthy textile can become your favorite part of a room, so it’s best to choose your investment wisely.
Ahead, we pulled together 18 of the best throw blanket styles, ranging from plain to patterned and even embroidered designs. There’s something for every decor aesthetic, too, from minimalist to maximalist and everyone in between.
Maison Deux
A splashy checkerboard print is the answer to your boring white sofa—this one comes in baby blue, terracotta orange, and a fun green-and-pink combination.
Materials: 100% New Zealand wool
Hawkins New York
Who’s afraid of a little color? Go bold with this crimson option, which is handwoven from a mohair-wool blend in a Spanish factory that has specialized in the skill since 1930.
Materials: 73% mohair, 24% wool, 3% polyamide
Quince
Budget-friendly cashmere is a no-brainer, especially when it comes in Quince’s dizzyingly vast array of pretty colors. The simple fringe finish dresses up the otherwise minimal design.
Materials: 100% Mongolian cashmere
Coyuchi
This is the decor equivalent of a big knit sweater, right down to the eyelet stitching. Layer it over a cream-colored armchair or couch to add texture to an all-neutral palette.
Materials: 56% alpaca, 44% organic pima cotton
Hermès
There are few things more chic than a lounge chair housing an Hermès throw. The iconic “H” is a luxe touch without going overboard. This is one your friends will fight over the next time you all gather at your place. Dry clean only, no question about it.
Materials: 90% merino wool, 10% cashmere
Parachute
Parachute brings the same luxurious feel to its throw blankets as it does its best-selling bedding: Here, a mostly alpaca blend is rendered in a deep charcoal hue that’s perfect for richer color schemes.
Bold checks and extra-long fringe makes this an easy focal point for any reading nook or vignette; just be sure to stick to dry cleaning to keep it looking pristine.
Materials: 60% alpaca, 25% wool, 15% polyamide
The Elder Statesman
cashmere and cotton-blend blanket
It’s all in the details for this cream-colored knit: A subtle box stitching gives it dimension, while the deliciously soft cashmere-cotton blend makes it something you’ll want to wrap up in all season long.
Materials: Cashmere, cotton
Tekla
Copenhagen-based Tekla is known for its minimalist textiles and wares—this beige blanket offers just the smallest hint of pattern that won’t compromise your pared-back palette.
Materials: 100% lambswool
Molly Fitzpatrick
If you like the boldness of a checkerboard pattern but want something a little unique, go for this CB2 design. The geometric print takes an abstract form, and best of all, it’s reversible.
Materials: 100% wool
Jenni Kayne
Fuzzy alpaca is ideal for those who run cold; and if you’re tired of all the chocolate brown, this tobacco shade offers an equally earthy alternative.
Materials: 87% alpaca, 13% recycled polyamide
Soho Home
Optical illusions are best when they’re made of a silk-and-wool blend jacquard. The design is inspired by the Soho Roc House, an iconic Mykonos hotel with breezy interiors and patterns just like this one sprinkled throughout its rooms.
Materials: 64% silk, 36% wool
Morrow Soft Goods
Choose from brick red or dark brown with this hand-woven piece, which features textural loops for a 3D effect.
Materials: 100% cotton
Zara Home
Despite what the moody palette and Christmassy plaid might connote, this blanket is actually surprisingly lightweight—you’ll be reaching for it through spring.
Materials: 100% polyester
Me & K
This blanket’s story begins in the Himalayas, where the fibers are harvested by Kashmiri artists. And while the cashmere is plush, the delicate pattern is something to applaud—it looks like it was painted right on.
Materials: 100% cashmere
Loretta Caponi
Live out your Italian nonna dreams with this chunky fringed throw. A massive embroidered flower is the main character here, as it should be (you can thank Tuscan artisans for that!). Picture this: your favorite reading chair, washed in sunlight, a cup of tea sitting on the table next to you. There’s no better way to avoid your to-do list.
Materials: 100% wool
Toast
colour block patchwork quilt
Technically, yes, this is a quilt: But the plum-and-oxblood patchwork design is too pretty to relegate to seasonal bedding. Place it front and center in your living room for a splash of color.
Materials: 100% cotton
Brooklinen
striped lambswool throw blanket
Heritage runs deep with this double-faced throw—it was made under the watch of a 100-year-old, family-run mill in Germany. Its warm, neutral palette means it’ll go with just about anything, from minimalist spaces to rooms bursting with color in need of a grounding moment.
