There are so many ways to enjoy the handmade chunky knit merino wool blankets. They have proven to be a hit around the world over last couple of years and i think you’ll love them further afield too! If you’re not sure how to go about incorporating these delicate yet beautiful knits in your home, then take a look at these tips for inspiration:

1. As a decorative bedspread

Need an incentive to make your bed each morning? Now you have one! Keep your bedroom looking neat and stylish by using a chunky knit blanket to cover your sheets. Just make sure to remove it before you go to sleep (or the dog jumps on the bed)!

2. Draped over the sofa

If you want to show off your new purchase, then the living room is a great place to showcase a blanket to all your guests. Whether you choose the main settee or opt for an armchair, this design choice is sure to be a real conversation starter. 

3. Folded on a shelf

For days when there’s a lot going on and you’re worried your blanket might get caught in the mess, fold it up on a shelf instead of hiding it away in a cupboard. This way, you can still enjoy its amazing textured look even when not in use.

4. Trailing from a basket

I love this interior décor tip and think it adds a real homely effect to any room. Having your blanket carefully spilling out of a wicker basket gives any room that lived-in feel – nobody will ever guess it was on purpose!

5. Layer it up

You might think your merino wool blanket is thick enough on its own, but pairing it with other blankets or throws really adds dimension to your indoor space.

6. Get creative with cushions

Similarly to the last point, arranging cushions on your bed or couch can really offset your new blanket. Whether it’s the centrepiece or supporting act for your arrangement, you can never have too many pillows.

7. Think colour schemes

The best way to incorporate any home furnishing is by integrating it into the overall colour scheme. Whether you like pastels, bright bold shades or classic monochrome, think bigger than your blanket; think about your home as a whole.

Ready to start transforming your home? Buying one of the chunky knit blankets is an investment in aesthetic beauty and i hope you’ll enjoy it for years to come.
