One of my favorite things to do on a quiet weekend morning is to slip downstairs and enjoy a cup of tea and a book before anyone else is awake, snuggled up in my favorite blanket (even if it is a rare occurrence). I’m a big fan of throw blankets, though many of us tend to think of them as a utility item rather than a decor object. They can easily cozy up a sofa and dress up a design. If you were asking for my humble opinion, I’d tell you I deem throw blankets essential for any sofa (or chair or bed or bench).
