Non-Wool blankets

[Ms_Derious]

Hi,

I'm looking to find a non-wool blanket for a double bed, and it seems impossible. All I can find are cot blankets or synthetic fleece.

I've found a few online, but it's hard to judge the thickness to I would rather go to a real shop.

Anyone else had the same trouble, and did you find something in the end.

What's wrong with synthetic fleece?

[Tigerlily]

It's not fire retardant, which may be of concern especially if it's for a child's bed. And according to Wikipedia, synthetic fleece may damage from hot water washing and dryers and may pill.

I use quilts, they are lovely and warm - cotton each side with a synthetic fibre inside. It's dead easy to make your own.
