Klippan – Velvet Wool Blanket – Rust – Lambswool Throw

The Klippan Velvet rust wool blanket is a wonderfully thick, cozy throw made from lambswool. The popular Velvet blanket, which is one of Klippan's classics, with its modern pattern and cream-colored fringes, is available in many colors, such as this warm orange, so that everyone can have their own blanket in their favorite color. We find it exciting that the pattern of the fine wool blanket looks like a diamond pattern on one side and a honeycomb pattern on the other.

Whether you use the Klippan Velvet wool blanket as a throw to snuggle up on the sofa, as a bedspread, or as a cozy blanket to drape over your shoulders on balmy summer evenings, you will love it. Velvet is a beautiful, high-contrast blanket with a Nordic pattern that keeps you wonderfully warm and simply looks great. The Velvet wool blanket, at 130x200cm, is a good size for a cozy blanket. After all, size plays an important role, in addition to natural materials, softness, and beautiful appearance, in making the Klippan Velvet blanket your favorite blanket.

Wool, Virgin Wool, or Lambswool - What's the Difference?

Wool is a natural and renewable raw material. This blanket is made from 100% lambswool. Lambswool refers to the wool from a sheep's (very) first shearing, or a lamb's, within the first 6 months of its life. It is particularly soft because the fibers are still very fine. Like virgin wool, it is also obtained from live sheep, usually in spring, ideally in one piece. After shearing, the wool is combed and loosened before being wonderfully orange woven. Lambswool is said to be hardly scratchy, breathable, and to have excellent insulating properties. It warms in winter and cools in summer. Klippan does everything to ensure the blanket feels soft, which is why the lambswool is extra pre-combed, but this quality is naturally scratchier than a cotton blanket would be, and especially at the beginning, the blanket sheds a little.

The rust-orange Velvet throw can be wonderfully washed at 30 degrees, so you can easily wash your cozy blanket yourself when needed. To ensure you enjoy your wool blanket for a long time, it is best to use a mild wool detergent and avoid fabric softener. Remember that the natural wool fat has a self-cleaning effect, and you wash it out little by little with each wash. It is best to hang the lambswool blanket outside on the line to air out. If you are looking for an orange wool blanket that matches your living style, this Klippan Velvet wool blanket is exactly the right one.
