Who buys it, and why

Throw blanket refers to a medium-sized blanket for draping over a sofa, chair or bed, sold in fleece, knit, faux fur and cotton and used for warmth and decoration. People search it to compare materials, sizes and prices and find styles for gifts and seasonal decor. In practice, buyers are households, and demand rises in autumn and winter and before holidays. It is a crowded home textile category with many brands, so custom prints, photo blankets, licensed designs and giftable bundles are the practical angles for small sellers.
