This blanket ended up being a lot more lightweight than I intended. I up size and ordered a king sized so that I could have some overhang on my queen size bed. It is light enough to move around during sleeping, so I don't feel smothered. It washes fantastically. However, it took forever to dry on a low heat setting as there are multiple layers quilted together. My cats are also in love with this blanket and I cannot comment on how woman is for myself.
