British Wool Blanket Size Guide

Tweedmill Wool Blanket Sizes

Our Tweedmill wool blankets come in two sizes: recycled wool throws measuring 120 x 150 cm and pure new wool blankets measuring 150 x 183 cm, including fringe.

The right size depends on how you plan to use your blanket. A smaller throw is handy for an armchair, your lap or a picnic, while the larger size offers more coverage for sharing on a sofa or layering across a bed. This guide explains what to expect from each size and how to choose the right one for your home.


120 x 150 cm Recycled Wool Throws

Our recycled wool throws measure 120 x 150 cm.

Recycled Wool Blanket

This smaller throw is a versatile option for everyday use around the home. It works well for:

  • Sofas and armchairs
  • Keeping warm while sitting
  • Picnics and outdoor use
  • Adding a decorative layer across the foot of a bed

At 120 x 150 cm, this throw is suitable for layering but will not fully cover a double bed or larger mattress.


150 x 183 cm Pure New Wool Blankets

Our pure new wool blankets measure 150 x 183 cm, including fringe.

Blue Slate Windmill Blanket

The larger size offers more coverage for shared use and layering. It works well for:

  • Sharing on a sofa
  • Adding an extra layer across a double bed
  • Draping over an armchair or the end of a bed

At 150 x 183 cm, this blanket provides an additional layer rather than full mattress coverage, particularly on larger beds.

How to Check the Size Before Buying

Use a tape measure or a length of string to mark out 120 x 150 cm or 150 x 183 cm on your sofa or bed. This will help you visualise the size and coverage before choosing your blanket.
