How To Wash a Blanket And Keep it Soft

Nothing beats the feeling of a fresh blanket. From time to time, though, your blanket may use a little refresh. It is very important to wash your blanket in the right manner so that it stays soft and will last for a number of years. In this article, we will go through how you can wash your Lola Blanket, ultra-soft vegan faux fur with a bouncy elastic stretch that requires just a bit of extra care. Here is how to safely wash your Lola Blankets so they stay soft, stretchy, and so cozy over time.

1. Prepare Your Blanket

  • Shake your blanket outdoors to get rid of any loose dirt or debris.

2. Machine Wash

  • Use a large capacity washer to allow your blanket to have room to move around freely.
  • Machine wash alone in cold water on a gentle or delicate cycle. Do not use hot water.
  • Use mild liquid detergent—no bleach or fabric softeners necessary, our blankets are soft enough!
  • Do not iron or dry-clean your blanket.

3. Drying

  • For best results, air dry your blanket by laying it flat or hanging it up.
  • Tumble dry in AIR mode to refresh the fluff.

4. Use and Storage

  • Keep your blanket clean and dry, and store it in a cool, dry place—like over your couch or bed, or in your closet. Never use plastic bags, which can lock in moisture and promote mildew.

How to Keep Your Blanket Soft:

  • Avoid washer overcrowding, which achieves poor cleaning and rinsing.
  • Avoid using fabric softeners.
  • Run on AIR in the dryer for 15 minutes to refresh the fluff.
