Etsy's Chunky Knitted Blankets Were Designed For Maximum Coziness

Depending on where you live, you might have already experienced a full-on winter cold snap. I have to admit we have been pretty lucky that the temperatures haven't dipped down that much.

However, with the news of a polar vortex heading our way that all could change soon. So what a better way to survive it than under a cozy blanket, huh?

I don't know about you, but what I love to do in the winter the most is chilling on the couch watching TV.

How do I keep warm and cozy? I use a blanket, of course. But not all blankets are created equal. Am I right?

That's why I think an oversized, chunky blanket is the way to go.

Are you with me so far? So naturally, I headed over to Etsy to see what I could find. A quick search reveals just what I was looking for here.

This one, in particular, is right up my alley.

Why? I mean just look at it. Isn't it the coziest thing you've ever seen? I think so. This Merino wool blanket looks like it would be so soft to wrap yourself around.

This giant blanket is handmade using the arm knitting technique.

It's what gives it that unique appearance and feel. I've never heard of it, but I'll take their word for it, hehe. The listing promises the blanket to be from 23 microns of Merino wool. Wow!

You can get it in many different colors.

One of my favorite colors is grey, so I would probably opt for that. But if you're into bright hues, you can also get foxy orange, turquoise, mustard, or even baby blue.

I think this blanket would also make a great gift for someone you love.

After all, you would be giving them, a way to stay warm all winter long, eh? That's a gift that will keep on giving. Don't you think?

Imagine cozying up inside with a warm and soft blanket like this?

Wouldn't that make winter a lot more bearable? I think this awesome blanket would also look great as a throw on the couch. It would add that extra amount of comfort to your home.

If you buy this oversized blanket, there are a few things you need to keep in mind.

You would have to dry clean it or use the washing machine with the steam function only. The good news is, natural wool cleans itself from odors.

Wow, are you as obsessed with this chunky blanket as I am?

Would it make a great addition to your house decor or what? I'm seriously considering getting it myself. Or I can buy it to use as a housewarming gift.
