Tommy BahamaWoven Yarn Dyed Cotton Blanket, Full/Queen

Bamboo means design, not material in this case!

I received this blanket recently and have mixed views on it. First, let me clarify that while the name mentions “bamboo”, the blanket is actually crafted from a blend of cotton, which was a bit of a surprise to me. I was expecting a soft, silky feel reminiscent of actual bamboo fabric, but it’s a bit different. The “bamboo” that it refers to is the pattern. Upon first touch, I found the texture to be slightly rough on the skin. It’s not as cozy as I had hoped, especially for snuggling up on chilly evenings. However, I discovered that it serves as a great layering piece! When used over another softer blanket, it adds warmth without compromising comfort. The design is beautiful, making it a stylish addition to my living space. I appreciate its versatility; it works well as a throw for the couch or as a decorative accent in the bedroom. Overall, while the Tommy Bahama Bamboo Woven Blanket didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of softness, it has its merits when paired with another blanket. If you’re looking for something to add a touch of style while providing warmth, this could be a good option, just keep in mind that it’s best used as a layering piece!
