But taking care of throw blankets can be hard. You might get confused about how to do it.

Do not worry. This post will be your saviour. Read on to find out more.

[1] Regular Maintenance

What is the key to keeping throw blankets fresh? Shake out your blankets at least once a week. This is to remove dust and debris. For everyday maintenance, gently brush the surface. You can use a lint roller or fabric brush. When not in use, fold your throws neatly. Or you can drape them artfully. This is to prevent wrinkles and maintain their shape.

[2] Washing Guidelines

Different materials require different cleaning approaches. Always check the care label before washing:

1. Cotton and synthetic blankets can typically be machine washed. You can use cold water on a gentle cycle
2. Wool throws often require hand washing or dry cleaning
3. Delicate fabrics like cashmere need special attention.  
4. Always use a gentle detergent. This is to preserve the fabric's integrity

[3] Drying and Storage

Proper drying is crucial. It will help maintain your throw blankets texture. Air dry your throws by laying them flat over a drying rack when possible. Are you using a dryer? Then, opt for low heat and remove promptly to prevent wrinkles. For seasonal storage, ensure blankets are completely clean and dry. Then, you can store them in breathable cotton bags.
