this blanket is far prettier in person. I am incredibly impressed with the quality as well as the feeling of the blanket. I have already washed it twice and it hasn't frizzed or frayed and I use the washing machine and dryer Each pattern section has a completely different texture and feel to it. Which makes it interesting to look at while remaining super soft and cozy. Perfect to cuddle with. we purchased the large size as it is super cozy for all of us to be under for movie nights. My kids are insisting they want one of their own for each of the rooms. I would highly recommend this as I am definitely going to purchase from them again.
