We like our blankets like we like our peanut butter — the chunkier, the better. Now that winter is officially here, we want to spend our time wrapped up in a thick knit blanket. Add a cup warm cocoa, a warm fire and a cup of coffee. Love is blind Season 3, and we’ll be here until the spring.

A soft blanket is an essential fall and winter item. Whether you’re cuddling for cuffing season or just bundling up on your own, a go-to throw will get you through the cold weather. But blankets don’t just belong on your couch! These knits can be kept in the bedroom or office as insulation for colder temperatures.

How we chose the best chunky knit blankets

Comfort is key when it comes to choosing the perfect blankets for you home. We searched the internet for the most comfortable, cozy, and cute blankets. It is best to go over-sized! Our goal was to find cozy throws that look and feel just like your favorite sweater. Just in time for sweater season. These blankets are made from a textured weave fabric that is breathable and elevates any space.

Blankets can end up costing a pretty penny, so we tried to track down affordable options that won’t break the bank. Many of the items on this list are currently on sale — sold! Because everyone has different tastes in color, we chose throws that are available in a range of shades so you can choose the right one. These blankets make great gifts for holidays!
