Product Information
Full details
The Emma Barclay Dakota Flannel Fleece Blanket Throw in Red is designed for those seeking luxurious softness and lightweight warmth for their home. Its key benefit is providing a cosy feel with a velvet-like finish that complements both classic and modern decor. A potential consideration is that while warm, it is designed to be breathable and not overly heavy, which might not suit those seeking extreme winter insulation.

Troubleshooting
Shedding after first wash
This is normal for fleece products and usually subsides after subsequent washes. Ensure you wash the throw separately or with similar dark colours on a gentle cycle.
Loss of softness
Avoid using fabric softeners and high heat when drying. Gentle washing and air drying or low-heat tumble drying will help maintain softness.
Colour transfer
Wash the red throw with similar dark colours only, especially during the first few washes, to prevent colour bleeding onto other fabrics.
