I’m the first to admit I’m a blanket snob. When I heard about Big Blanket Co.’s 100-square-foot offering, I was skeptical: How big does a blanket for snuggling up on the couch need to be, anyway?
I got the Original Stretch Blanket in forest green, and it’s every bit as amazing as it’s marketed to be. It’s not just big (although it’s large enough that it almost feels like a weighted blanket when I pile it all on top of myself) — the slightly stretchy velvety material feels incredibly luxurious. I’ve washed it tons of times and unlike most blankets that start out soft and end up pilling, it’s still like brand new — and despite its size, it fits well in my washer and dryer.
