After receiving the blanket in the mail I washed is per the instructions on the tag. Should have listened to the other reviews…the blanket practically disintegrated- green fluff and dust everywhere- had to vacuum my dryer 3 times, I’m covered in green, my dog is covered in green and we’re left with a paper thin blanket that I’m afraid to touch because it’s still shedding. 
Never seen anything like it. Such a waste of money.
