This is a jacquard knitted tassel throw blanket in acrylic cashmere, measuring 133 x 153 cm plus 12 cm tassels, made to drape over a sofa or the end of a bed. It does two jobs at once: on chilly Nairobi evenings it is the blanket you pull over your knees while watching TV, and the rest of the time it sits folded on the sofa arm or across the bed, adding colour, texture and a cosy, styled look. The textured diamond knit and soft tassel fringe give it a handmade feel, and acrylic cashmere is soft, warm and light enough to use as a shawl around your shoulders too. This medium size is ideal for one person on the sofa, for armchairs, for the foot of a single or double bed, and as an easy, beautiful gift for housewarmings, birthdays and new mums.

Buying guide
At 133 x 153 cm, this is the right size for one person curling up on the sofa or for draping over an armchair or the end of a bed; if you want a throw to share or to cover the full width of a queen bed, choose the larger 163 x 183 cm version. Pick a colour that picks up one shade from your cushions or curtains for a pulled-together room. Wash by hand or on a wool or delicate cycle in cool water, inside a laundry bag to protect the tassels, and dry flat in the shade so the knit keeps its shape. Do not hang a wet knit, which stretches it. Comb the tassels with your fingers once dry.
How it compares
A fleece blanket is warm but looks flat and tends to pill quickly. A wool throw is warmer but heavier, pricier and harder to wash. Acrylic cashmere gives the soft, knitted look and gentle warmth of wool with easier care and a lighter weight, which makes it the practical everyday sofa throw.
