First impressions? The light blue color is absolutely gorgeous! It's this perfect mix of calming and stylish that just works everywhere—my couch, bed, even draped over a chair.

The texture is interesting. Out of the package, it has this linen-like coarseness that feels high-quality (not cheap at all). After a couple washes? Magic. It softens up beautifully while keeping that sturdy woven vibe.

I’ve used it as: a picnic blanket (dries crazy fast), a conference room shawl (got compliments), and even an impromptu tapestry for my boring apartment wall. That fringe detailing? *chef’s kiss*

Washing tip: Cold cycle! Mine shrank a bit when I got lazy with hot water. Still love it though—just now it’s more ‘cozy nest’ sized than ‘full couch coverage’.

At this price point for real Turkish cotton? 10/10 would gift (already bought one for my mom’s birthday). Just maybe avoid if you want something supersoft like fleece—this is breathable, lightweight comfort with character.
