I have this magic blanket my friend made me before she died, idk how she did it but that blanket always is juuuuuust the right level of warmth. It’s kept me warm through freezing cold winters in Michigan and cool but covered in its breathable fabric in the heat of many an Arizona summer. I’ll never know how that works, but I do know I’ll never go anywhere overnight without it.
Wasn’t meant to be a dig, most people think wool just keeps you warm, but it’s absolutely magic. Keeps you warm in the winter, cool in the summer. It’ll even keep you dry. When it gets wet, it creates an exothermic reaction to warm you up which creates a sort of runaway effect to keep drying itself. It does run out of effectiveness, but plunging into a frozen lake for instance, it gives you like a half hour headstart on warmth/survival. After that, it requires removing it and drying/external heat but still. It’s a godamn fabric. It’s insane.
That said, I’ve got two questions, ones for you: It’s got a tag right? Unless someone you know actually made it.
Oh don’t worry, I didn’t take it as a dig. That’s genuinely cool that wool works like that ( ‿) Anyway, here’s your answers:
It doesn’t have a tag, thankfully, I’m absolutely disgusted by tags and the thought of seeing or touching one makes me feel like I’m gonna hurl (but that’s a whole other story). While I do get someone to remove the tags from my things for me, this one never had one, because my friend made it for me shortly before she died. I’m not too worried about not being able to identify the material though, I’m happy to know it’s probably wool and also to be able to think there’s a little bit of magic in it from the love she put into it when making it for me.
I asked my vegan sibling about using wool and they said they’ll personally use wool, they just won’t eat it 😄

and yes, it’s super soft
I too, choose this man’s blanket.
😂 not a man but I’m okay with sharing, just take careful care when you’re using it, it’s irreplaceable ( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Actually blessed magic blanket
I bet it’s just wool
Could be, I don’t know shit about fabric.

Second question, are vegans allowed to use wool?
Are you asking if they actually know their friend?
Nah, I was drinking a bit, so probably some typos in there

LMAO fair on the vegan question.
It could also straight up be the magic in the sense that how some fabrics are weaved can help with cooling/heating.
My brother use to rip the tags off his shirts and a lot of the time would take a little hole from the shirt with it.
Thanks for sharing!
