Winnie, It is a blanket that has squares sewn together or rather quilted in and the squares have tiny glass beads in them. It is heavy. My granddaughters probably weighs 5 or 6 lbs. Mine weighs 12. It isn't so much for warmth as it is for comfort. Many feel it helps to calm anxiety and such for those of us who deal with that. Though they are warm just due to the material some are made from. I won't be able to use mine in summer due to that. |

My blanket is about 16 pounds; I think 12 would be better.

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for what he has done. Philippians 4:6
Just follow God unquestioningly. Because you love Him so, for if you trust His judgment there is nothing you need to know.

Definitely cozy. I drag mine downstairs when we are going to watch a movie or I want to settle in with a book. |

This is quite interesting, Denise, and it sounds like they are quite popular too. |

Winnie, I bought because it seemed to help my granddaughter and dealing with anxiety is no fun. I do think it helps me personally. I'm not sure how it helps in other situations or why others choose to use them. |
