  2. Try to avoid frivolous products.

Tips for choosing

The choice of a plaid, knitted from plush threads, depends on various moments that can play a decisive role just for you.

If you need to use a blanket as a blanket for a chair, bed or sofa, it does not make sense to spend money to purchase products from natural yarns. A synthetic blanket would be a good option.

If you want to buy such a warm product for a long time, which will be nice to cover yourself in cold evenings, then you need to pay attention to woolen or high-quality cotton blankets.

The question of the size of the pile here is also important: a long pile will look more catchy and beautiful, but this is not very convenient with active use. Such a pile much faster “breaks down”, becomes polluted and comes into complete disrepair.

Products with thick, but not very high pile can look stylish - and at the same time are considered the most practical. This product can cover itself without fear that it will quickly become unusable.

Demanded is a plaid with long sleeves made of acrylic. This fabric does not accumulate dust and will last as long as possible. The quality of the product with sleeves is also important as being safe for people who are prone to allergies.

You can choose a plush coverlet with a long or not very high pile, having a looped or ragged type of mahra - depending on whether the product will be used often. There are also jacquard products - blankets with images on both sides. This is most often plush blankets for children.

How to care?

From whatever cloth the plaid is created, the need to wash it once will arise anyway. This product (like many other household items) quickly accumulates dirt.

The following useful recommendations should be considered:

  • Always buy special liquid products for care, and even better - high-quality plush care gels. They are much better dissolved in water, they will not crumble stuck between the nap of the product.
  • No need to strongly crush and twist the product. Both natural and synthetic fabric can be deformed, and it will be impossible to return the product form.
  • If you are going to wash a blanket with an elongated nap, you need to thoroughly shake it, collect all the rubbish that got entangled in the fibers.
  • When washing in a washing machine, do not forget to gently roll the rug into a loose roll - with villi inside,to keep their direction and even distribution.
  • It is not necessary to squeeze the product, it is better to just let the water run off by placing the blanket in the bathroom. When all the water is drained, the blanket will need to be wrapped with a piece of fabric from good cotton - so the liquid will be absorbed faster.
  • To dry a plush product you need on a flat surface - at normal (not aggressive) temperature, away from the radiator or heater, from the rays of the sun.
  • When the cover is dry, the pile can be very carefully combed with a soft bristle brush.

Wool, cotton, bamboo, natural silk fabric and fur - such materials are not intended for high temperatures. The temperature during washing in this case can not be higher than 35 degrees.

Fleece, acrylic, polyester and synthetic fur can be attributed to non-natural materials from which blankets with an elongated pile are made. It is easy to look after these plaids, they are more durable and absolutely hypoallergenic.

Synthetic products (as well as covers made of natural materials) should be washed using special products. The water temperature for such covers is 30 degrees, and acrylic and synthetic fur will retain their characteristics at 40-42 degrees.

If you can wash in a typewriter or with your hands, it is better to choose the last option. Synthetic fibers "do not like" the mechanical effect.

Consider the following:

  1. Dip the blanket for 30 minutes into the solution of the special substance for washing, without squeezing it or lifting it. Then drain the water and use a fresh, but well concentrated solution. Carefully knead the blanket in soapy water, but do not stretch it.
  2. Drain detergent solution and pour plain clean water. It is necessary to rinse the product as carefully as before you washed the rug.
  3. When all the washing substance is drained from the canvas, it will be necessary to put the blanket on a special horizontal grate so that the water flows.
  4. Spread the wet product on the table, gently aligning its corners, and pull the edges. Let it dry in the usual way - and then lightly brush it with a brush.
