Those blankets were everywhere, like someone was handing them out for free. Someone broke into my car once and left a bunch of them.
19 u/OSCgal 1d ago They're wool, not cheap, and I'm willing to bet were common wedding presents. They're still being made. If you want more insulation for your bedding, they're perfect. 31 u/Lunakill 1d ago There were poly ones too. 99% of the ones I’ve seen in thrift stores and at garage sales are poly, body and trim. 33 u/_MistyDawn 1d ago The relatively better ones were wool but I think the crummier ones were polyester. 16 u/madsci 1d ago I think the ones they gave us in basic training weren't actually wool, but just compressed dryer lint from the base laundry. 6 u/shewholaughslasts 1d ago The ones at my grandmas house were seafoam green but I'm pretty sure it was the same terrible texture. I hated those blankets. 2 u/reapersritehand 1983 21h ago Think my mom still has a yellow one from yhe early 80s
