I actually love moss green as a fall color, because it’s an earthy shade that isn’t overtly vibrant. This pick is made from recycled cotton, making it both a sustainable and breathable choice. It’s plenty lengthy, so you can wrap it around yourself and still have some spare. With stripes, tassels, and stitches, it has lots of dreamy detailing.
FAQs
What colors should you look for when choosing fall throw blankets?
Look for classic colors such as oranges, browns, reds, and yellows. As well as these, don’t be afraid to go for something a bit different, such as moss greens or dark purples.
Does a throw blanket cover the bed?
Throw blankets are normally the right size to cover most of your bed, but aren’t supposed to act as a sheet or comforter. You can also fold them down and lay them on the corner or end of your bed as a stylish accent.
