Product Type: Throw Blankets

Cream with bands of rust stripes and a soft fringe at both short ends, this throw brings warm color into a room without shouting. Boutique Rugs names it Cheektowaga, lists it as hand woven and gives the blend as 70% cotton, 24% acrylic and 6% nylon. It measures 50 by 60 inches, the size most stores sell as a standard throw.

  • Rust as a neutral. The red-brown stripes sit happily with gray, navy, olive and wood tones.
  • Three striped bands. Groups of rust lines cross the top, middle and bottom, so almost any fold shows color.
  • Cotton with backup. The acrylic and nylon in the yarn add strength and color hold to a mostly cotton hand.

Where a Striped Throw Blanket Works

A striped throw blanket looks best when its lines agree with something else in the room. Here the rust bands run across the width, so draped over the back of a sofa they sit parallel to the cushions, and folded over a footboard they echo the edge of the mattress. Lines that agree with the furniture make a room look finished, which is a lot of work for one blanket.

The color does the rest. Rust is a warm middle tone, so on a cool gray sofa it adds heat, and next to cognac leather or walnut it looks like it came from the same family.

How to Fold a Throw Blanket

To fold a throw blanket for a shelf or a basket, halve it lengthwise first and then fold it into thirds across the width. With this one that leaves a neat 25 by 20 inch rectangle with a rust band on top. For a blanket ladder, skip the thirds: fold it in half lengthwise, hang it over a rung and let the fringe fall level at the bottom, the way it hangs in the ladder photo.

Give it a shake before folding and smooth the fringe with your fingers so it all lies in one direction.

What the Acrylic and Nylon Add

Each fiber in the yarn has a job. Cotton, at 70%, gives the soft, dry feel against your skin. Acrylic holds dye well and barely shrinks, which helps the rust stay bright and the size stay true, and nylon is one of the strongest fibers used in textiles. Together they make a throw you can use every evening without babying it.

Rust Stripes Beside Your Sofa

Is this throw 100% cotton? No, it is a cotton-rich blend. Cotton makes up most of the yarn, and the remaining 30% is acrylic and nylon, there for strength and color hold.

What sofa color suits rust stripes? Gray, cream, navy and olive green all work. Gray and navy turn the rust into the accent, while cream and olive keep the whole corner warm and earthy.

Will a 50 by 60 throw cover two people? Snugly. Sixty inches across is enough for two people sitting close on a sofa, and one person can wrap it around their shoulders with room to spare.
