You dry cotton blankets in the sun, remove dirt with the vacuum cleaner or beat out from them dust. As a rule, cotton does not cause allergies. It well will suit the fans of "grandmother's" blankets preferring to fall asleep under weight of cover.

Some producers impregnate stuffing with special structures for fight against dust tick, but when washing the anti-allergenic covering is gradually washed away. That the blanket well held form, usually add feather to down, it gives to products elasticity and volume, does not allow rectangle "to spread". Choose blankets with the maintenance of feathers no more than 50%, otherwise you receive rigid prickly surface for the smaller price. Eider down – the most expensive, warm and light filler.

Cashmere fillers are made of gentle underfur from breast and neck of mountain goats. Blankets from such wool well remove stress of muscles.
