Luxury Cotton Knit Blankets

How big are Biquette Blankets?

Our knit Throw Blankets are 50 by 60 inches, full size for draping over a couch, an armchair, or the end of a bed. In comparison, our Midi Blankets are 36 by 48 inches and Mini Blankets are 30 by 40 inches.

Are cotton knit blankets good for year-round use?

Yes. Cotton is naturally breathable and soft against the skin, making it comfortable across seasons. A cotton knit throw provides cozy warmth without the heavier insulation of wool, making it a versatile choice for couches, beds, and everyday lounging. We take that a step further by only using fibers like Egyptian cotton for a smoother finish and subtle sheen or organic cotton for a softer, more matte feel than typical cotton.

What's the difference between Egyptian cotton and organic cotton?

Egyptian cotton describes where the cotton is grown, while organic cotton refers to how it's cultivated. We use long-staple Giza 86 Egyptian cotton for its smooth yarn, softness, and fine stitch definition. Our organic cotton is chosen for its soft, natural feel, and we also offer blends of both.

Choosing between the two doesn't necessarily mean a trade-off in quality, especially as we also use organic cotton and Egyptian cotton blends for the best of both worlds.

Are cotton throw blankets suitable for couches and beds?

Absolutely. Our 50 by 60-inch cotton throws are ideal for draping over a couch, wrapping up while lounging, or adding a decorative layer to the foot of a bed. We also offer smaller Midi and Mini sizes for different uses.

There's too many options, how do I decide between blankets and brands?

It's important to consider a blanket's fiber grade, size, design, construction, and finishing to decide whether a blanket will last with great quality and stay luxurious.

We've written a blanket buyer's guide around those 5 items (including an important distinction between knits and woven blankets) with a TLDR here: https://biquette.com/blogs/journal/how-to-choose-a-knit-throw-blanket

What are they made from?

All Throw Blankets (and every other Biquette knit) are fully made in small-batches and knitted fully in our Long Island facility with premium, luxurious natural fibers like super soft Egyptian cotton, organic cotton, and extra-fine merino wool.

These fibers are specifically chosen to be gentle and soft against skin, durable through plenty of washing, and provide a subtle luxurious quality that you can tell an immediate difference against synthetic fibers.

After knitting, everything is carefully hand steamed, packaged.

Who designs the patterns?

Our knit designs are intentionally curated and created in collaboration with independent artists, so each piece is an original work you won't find anywhere else.
