Blanket is a general term which includes throw. Blankets are fabrics which are bigger than throws and used for covering your bed and keeping you warm during the night. A throw is a small blanket that is often used on the coach or recliner in your living area. It is ideal to cozy up with while watching TV or just use it as a decorative item that upgrades your sofa or bed.

Main difference between blanket and throw is the size. Blankets are intended to cover beds, so they have single, twin, double, queen and king sizes. On the other side throws typically have a size of 90x120 cm or 120x150 cm maximum. 

One of the other differences is their materials. Blankets are made of materials such as cotton, wool or fleece, that are designed to keep you warm. On the other hand, throws are more decorative so more colorful and made of sateen, cotton, velvet, cashmere or wool. They may also include knitted components, lace or embroidery to make them more attractive.

 

The prices of blankets and throws depend mostly on the material and size. Because of their sizes blankets are usually pricey than throws. 

Usually cotton, fleece, wool and cashmere materials are used in blankets. 

Fleece is a synthetic fabric which makes it very affordable. 

Wool and cashmere blankets are very suitable for cold climate, but price is more expensive than all others.

Cotton blankets are ideal for any weather and the warmth they provide primarily depends on the weave of them. Many different colors and designs are available in the market. They are usually the most affordable blankets after the synthetic ones. 

 

Blankets are used to provide warmth during sleep and add an extra décor to your bedroom. Throws are more versatile. You can use them to get an extra warmth while relaxing on your coach, as an aesthetic piece in your living room or as a travel blanket during your flights.

When you shop around for a perfect blanket there are some features you should keep in your mind. 

• Comfortable and warm: For a good night sleep everyone wants a blanket that is soft and comfortable. 
• Non-allergic: There are many people who suffer from allergies. Dust mite is one of the most common allergens that thrive in bed sheets, duvet and comforters. Thus, if you have an allergy, you need a bed cover that is easy to clean and dry such as a cotton blanket that you can wash every week. Washing at 60 degrees and drying in hot dryer or under direct sun light kills all dust mites. 
• Highly absorbent, quick-drying, light weight: If you are looking for a beach-picnic blanket-throw, it should be highly absorbent and quick drying. Cotton blankets, especially Turkish peshtemal blankets and throws have these features, also they are very light-weight so easy to pack and carry.
