How to choose the right terry plaid?

The name "terry plaid" combines a variety of textile products, common to which is the presence of a characteristic fleecy surface, formed from the loops of the main threads. In composition, such rugs can be both completely natural, and with the addition of synthetics. When choosing any of them, you should pay attention to the following:

  1. The length of the pile . Terry plaids with a long nap will be much warmer than their short-haired brethren. In this case, products with short nap longer will keep a neat appearance.
  2. Density . The density index of double plaids can range from 200 to 800. The higher this figure, the more fluffy and furry the product will be.
  3. Structure . Distinguish plaids plaids with a unilateral pile, bilateral and having a relief pattern.
  4. Composition . Soft and fluffy blankets made of 100% cotton are characterized by the ability to freely let in air and absorb water, as well as a mild massage effect. At the same time, which is especially valuable, they do not irritate the skin. Blankets, which include flax as well as cotton, have unique thermoregulation properties - they do not allow overheating, which makes flax the most successful material for children's terry plaids. But terry plaids from mixed fabrics have a number of unpleasant disadvantages: they are electrified and attract dust. But they serve an order of magnitude longer than fully natural products.
  5. The size . Like other bedspreads , terry plaids are available in several standard sizes: children's, one-and-a-half, double and euro.
