Blankets & Throws

John Atkinson manufactures the finest traditional wool blankets in the UK.

Choosing the right wool blanket requires an understanding of how different types of wool perform in various seasons. For spring and summer, lightweight wool blankets made from Merino or a wool blend are ideal. These blankets provide the right amount of warmth without overheating, allowing you to enjoy the comfort of wool even in milder temperatures. Their breathability ensures that you stay cool and comfortable, making them perfect for breezy spring evenings or air-conditioned summer nights. As the temperatures drop in autumn, you might want to switch to a medium-weight wool blanket. Blankets made from Merino or Alpaca wool are excellent choices for this transitional season. They offer a balance of warmth and breathability, ensuring you stay cozy without feeling too hot. The natural insulation properties of wool make it an excellent choice for maintaining a consistent temperature, even as the weather becomes more unpredictable. Winter demands the heaviest and warmest wool blankets. Pure new wool and Merino wool blankets are perfect for this season, providing maximum warmth and comfort. Their luxurious feel adds a touch of elegance to your winter bedding, making your home a cozy retreat from the harsh weather outside. Whether you're snuggling up by the fire or layering your bed, a high-quality wool blanket can make all the difference.

Sleeping under a wool blanket can offer a number of benefits, including:

• Warmth: Wool is a natural insulator, which means it can help regulate body temperature and keep you warm on cold nights.
• Moisture-wicking: Wool is naturally breathable and has moisture-wicking properties, which means it can help keep you dry and comfortable while you sleep.
• Hypoallergenic: Wool is naturally hypoallergenic, making it a good option for people with allergies or sensitivities to other materials.
• Durability: Wool is a durable material that can last for many years with proper care, making it a good investment for those who want a blanket that will last.
• Comfort: Wool is soft and comfortable to the touch, which can help promote a more restful and peaceful sleep.
• Eco-friendly: Wool is a renewable and biodegradable material, making it a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly choice compared to synthetic materials.
• Overall, a wool blanket can provide a warm, comfortable, and eco-friendly option for those looking to improve the quality of their sleep.
