A knitted throw with tassels is the piece interior photographers reach for, because knit texture and a fringed edge give a plain sofa something to catch the light. At 130 x 180cm it is sized to drape properly over the arm and back of a sofa — the usual failing of smaller throws is that they read as a folded square rather than a layer. It is genuinely useful too: an extra blanket for a cool evening, a nap blanket at a desk, or a shawl over the shoulders in an over-air-conditioned office. Available in grey, brown and burnt orange — two neutrals and one accent colour that lifts a beige or grey room.

Buying guide
Drape a throw rather than folding it precisely — over one arm of the sofa with a diagonal fall looks lived in, while a neat rectangle looks staged. Wash knitted throws gently and dry flat, never hanging, since the weight of water stretches knit permanently out of shape. Comb the tassels straight with your fingers after washing rather than brushing them. If a loop snags, ease it back through with a crochet hook instead of cutting. Burnt orange works as the single accent colour in a neutral room; grey and brown disappear into most schemes.
How it compares
Against a fleece blanket, knit has far more visible texture and works as a styling piece, though fleece is warmer for its weight. Against a chunky knit, this is lighter and easier to wash. For pure warmth on a cold night, a sherpa blanket does more.
