Few things exude luxury quite like cashmere and extra-fine merino wool. And it's no wonder. Blankets, throws and shawls crafted from these yarns feel meltingly soft against your skin and are lightweight yet warm. Investing in a great quality piece means it will last for years, bringing cosiness and elegance to your home and wardrobe for many winters to come.
Adding a new throw to your bedroom or sofa can also instantly update your home decor. It's a simple way to freshen things up and bring some extra warmth to a space. No painting or new furniture required! Just a beautiful centrepiece throw that you can hunker down under until the weather warms.
If you're looking for the perfect Christmas gift for a loved-one or want to treat yourself, here's our edit of the finest cashmere and merino throws to cosy up with this Fall.
