3. Use only gentle or mild detergent
Avoid using fabric softener
4. Tumble dry on low heat – please note it may take more than one round for your blanket to dry completely
5. Never hang your knitted blanket up to dry – it’ll stretch!
Make sure to check your washing machine’s weight capacity before washing your Blanket. Our Knitted Weighted Blankets are great for deep sleep, but it’s essential to check beforehand if the washing machine model you have can bear the full weight of your blanket.
Does sleeping with a Knitted Weighted Blanket make you feel hot?
It does not! The weight of the blanket does not affect the warmth. The breathability of the material and the weight distribution can help regulate body temperature, making it comfortable for most people.
How long does it take to get used to sleeping with a Knitted Weighted Blanket?
Whether or not this is the first time you're using a weighted blanket, it's important to allow your body to adjust to the additional weight with ease. Don't rush the process! We highly recommend using the weighted blanket for shorter periods of time while your body adjust (cue cozy naps on the couch!).
For night-time sleep, we recommend using the blanket over half of your body for about a week. Feel free to use your normal comforter or flat sheet during this time to keep warm! Once the week is up, you can slowly move the blanket up each day until it covers you completely.
It can sometimes take up to 14 days for your body to full adjust to the new added weight. It takes roughly 14-21 days for us to form new habits, so give your body time to adjust to the weight and to the benefits. Deep sleep is on the horizon.
Should I sleep under weight if I have a pre-existing medical condition?
While weighted blankets can help to treat some common sleep disorders, sleeping under weight isn’t recommended for people with certain pre-existing medical conditions, such as sleep apnea. Some people with conditions such as these found it uncomfortable to sleep under weight. If you have a condition that you’re concerned about, we always recommend that you check in with a healthcare professional before trying out a weighted blanket.
Don’t forget that we also offer a 14-day return policy, so if you get the green light from your doctor, you can try out one of our blankets and see if it works for you!
