Chair & sofa throws

A faux fur throw has a long, soft pile and looks at home draped over a sofa arm or a bedroom chair. It suits someone who likes a finished, hotel-style room and enjoys a bit of indulgence. Before buying, feel for a dense pile that doesn't show the backing when you part it, and check whether the back is lined with a smooth or brushed fabric. Neutral shades like ivory, grey and taupe go with most rooms. Velvet throws are a lighter option with a similar dressed-up feel, and work well on accent chairs where a thick pile would look too heavy.

A luxury faux fur blanket is usually larger than a throw, sized to cover two people or a full-length nap on the couch. Sherpa reversible styles pair a fluffy side with a smoother one, and fleece throws give a similar softness in a thinner, lighter layer. These suit people who watch movies under a blanket every night or run cold in the evenings. Check the dimensions against the sofa or bed, look at the care label to see if it's machine washable, and consider weight, since heavy plush can feel too warm for some.

A standard knit throw has a finer stitch than a chunky style, so it drapes neatly and folds small enough for a basket. It's a safe pick when you don't know someone's decor well, since cable, waffle and ribbed knits suit most rooms. A classic woven cotton throw fills the same role in a lighter, more breathable layer that works year-round. Check the fibre content, whether it can go in the washer, and whether the edges are finished with a border or fringe that matches the person's style.

A large knit blanket covers a queen bed or a whole sectional, which makes it a good fit for a new homeowner furnishing bigger rooms or a family that shares the couch. The size makes it feel generous as a gift, but it also means more weight and a harder wash. Before buying, compare the listed measurements with the furniture it's meant for, ask yourself whether the person has space to store it in summer, and check whether it needs hand washing or can go in a large machine.

A chunky throw blanket is built for texture and warmth, with thick yarn or a deep weave you can see from across the room. It suits people who like a cozy, cabin-style or Scandinavian look and want a blanket that doubles as decor. Look at the gaps between stitches, since very open weaves can snag on buttons, pet claws or jewellery. Check the weight too: some are heavier than they look in photos, which some people love and others find awkward to move around.

A chunky knit throw uses oversized loops that look hand-knit, and it's one of the most photographed pieces in a living room. It makes a thoughtful gift for a sister, girlfriend or anyone who enjoys styling their space. It works best as a decorative layer at the end of a bed or folded over a chair. Before buying, check how tightly the loops hold together, whether the yarn sheds, and what the care label says, since many need gentle hand washing and flat drying.

A knit wool blanket gives natural warmth and a traditional look that suits cottages, older homes and anyone who likes classic textiles. Wool blends mix in other fibres to soften the feel and make care easier. It's a good choice for grandparents or someone in a cold, drafty house. Check the wool percentage and the feel against the skin, since some people find pure wool itchy. Look at care instructions closely, as wool can shrink or felt if washed the wrong way.

A chenille chunky knit blanket has the big-loop look of a chunky knit but uses velvety chenille yarn that feels soft rather than rough. It suits someone who likes the chunky style but finds wool scratchy. Flatter chenille accent throws give the same soft texture in a thinner layer for a chair or sofa arm. Before buying, check whether the loops are tight enough to hold their shape, and whether the blanket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle or needs hand washing.
