A nice, soft fleece blanket is a great way to stay warm on a cold night. These cuddly blankets have become extremely popular among people of all ages. You can find blankets made from fleece in all different colors and sizes. They are inexpensive and have a wonderful feel to them. Unlike a wool blanket, fleece is less expensive and easier to clean. You can simply toss these blankets into the washing machine and then dry them in the dryer. This is different than many other types of blankets that require dry cleaning.
You'll find these blankets will repel water better that wool or cotton, while being great at providing insulation at the same time. This is part of the reason why they keep you feeling warm and comfortable.
If you are someone who enjoys sewing, you may want to make your own fleece blanket instead of buying one. You'll find fleece at any fabric store and you can select the size of blanket you wish to make. Finish off the edges and sew a hem around the blanket to finish it off. It's not a difficult process, but if you have very little sewing experience it would be better to simply buy a new fleece blanket.
