The Admitrack Chunky Knit Blanket is a 51 by 63 inch throw knitted from chenille yarn in a cable pattern. The knitting process is what matters here: it is tight enough that the blanket resists the unraveling, shedding and pilling that ruins most chunky-knit throws after a season. It has been pull-tested for durability, and unlike hand-knit chunky blankets that can only be spot cleaned, this one machine washes inside the included mesh laundry bag. The weave is open enough to breathe, so it works in shoulder seasons rather than just deep winter. Best fit: a couch that needs texture, a reading chair, or anyone who has already thrown out one chunky blanket that fell apart.

Pros

  • Chenille cable knit holds its shape instead of stretching out after a few uses
  • Machine washable in the included mesh bag, rare for a chunky knit
  • Open weave breathes, so it works in fall as well as winter
  • Pull and durability tested against shedding and tearing

Cons

  • Chenille picks up pet hair more readily than a smooth woven throw

Frequently asked questions

Will the chunky knit stretch out or unravel?

The knitting process is designed to prevent the loops from pulling loose, and the blanket is pull-tested. Normal use will not unravel it, though snagging it on something sharp can pull a loop.

Can it go in a washing machine?

Yes, inside the included mesh laundry bag, which keeps it from tangling. Tumble dry low or air dry, and use mild detergent.

Is it too hot for summer?

No. The open cable knit breathes, so it is a year-round throw rather than a heavy winter blanket.

How big is 51 by 63 inches in practice?

It comfortably covers one adult lying on a couch, or drapes over the corner of a bed. Two people sharing it would be tight.
