Hello dear MN. I'm looking to purchase a new blanket to keep me cosy in the winter. I'm going to try and use it instead of putting the heating on!! Just been browsing and am a bit overwhelmed at the range available!! And confused by the word throw! Aren't they more for decoration? Does anyone have a really cosy snuggly blanket which they would say is a must have for the winter? I don't want a fleece one or one of those you can wear with a hood. Just the softest cosiest blanket.. one that you couldn't live without! Thank you
