Product Information

We did try hooded blankets that kept us slightly warmer, but thanks to Onesnug’s ‘MicroCool’ fabric, this won’t leave you feeling uncomfortably hot and sweaty. WITH temperatures dropping and heating costs rising, an oversized hooded blanket should be an essential item of loungewear this autumn and winter. Today I am bringing you the Cheshire Cat in the form of a hooded blanket. You gotta love that big grin! It probably goes without saying that theirs is incredibly soft and cosy. The inner fleece is as soft as cotton wool while the outer feels silky, meaning that, despite its size, it didn’t actually feel as bulky to wear as some of the others.

Your biggest problem will probably be deciding which design to go for, as there are tens, if not hundreds to choose from (we lost count at 80), including animals, food, star signs – even ones from franchises like Harry Potter and Friends. We did find this one to be ever so slightly looser around the bottom, letting the odd autumnal draft in – but on the plus side Snuggly says theirs can be tumble dried on a low heat, unlike Oodie’s.

This hoodie is, of course, oversized, but not so big around the hood or sleeves that you can’t see, eat or type – we could comfortably wear this at our WFH desk or walking around the house without it getting in the way. It also got the ‘paws up’ from our feline tester, who couldn’t stop kneading into this super-soft fabric (on the downside this sherpa fabric does collect cat hair like a magnet…)

They can seem an expensive buy for something you’re almost certainly not going to wear outside of the house, but if you spend a lot of time at home – whether working or relaxing – they could be a good investment, especially as they wash well in the washing machine.With Halloween around the corner, I decided to create a spooky design that you can use at home as a warm afghan or adjust and turn into a Halloween costume. Hooded blankets have become so popular that they’re now widely available across the high street, from upmarket lifestyle stores like The White Company to your local supermarket. Extra large, extra warm and extra snuggly, Kudd.ly’s hoodie is like wearing a bear hug and is so big you’ll be able to curl your entire body up inside. If you bought a Oodie, you can absolutely throw it in the washing machine to make cleaning easy. Ensure you set a gentle cycle using mild detergents that are safe for wool or silks. For maximum durability, you should wash your Oodie by hand. It’s also important to know that Oodies are air-dry only – don’t you go throwing yours in the tumble dryer!

Arguably the original and most famous, the word ‘Oodie’ is now synonymous with hooded blankets – we even found ourselves telling people that we were “testing out Oodies” when talking about this feature.

It’s definitely one for wearing while cosying up on the sofa rather than when trying to get anything productive done, as its size and weight make it a little cumbersome, and the large hood often falls over the eyes – great for napping, not so great for WFH. The long elasticated cuffs at the wrists are also useful, keeping your sleeves rolled up and well out of the way if you want to, say, type or cook. If you’re after that fluffier, soft-as-clouds style of fleece rather than the denser type of, say, Oodie, this is the best one we tested.

This is a cuddly, warm hooded blanket your child or yourself can snuggle in, and then it folds into a fun and decorative pillow in the shape of a Cheshire cat. There are also now lots of online-only brands that specialise in these hoodies, like Oodie, Kudd.ly and Snuggly. This will make a great present or birthday gift and with a little customization, you can turn it into an original Halloween costume. Of course, you can also always add one to your Christmas wishlist and let someone else treat you to a cosy winter.

This poncho’s shape means that your hands remain free for typing, drinking, reading etc (although does mean that they miss out on the heat), and we found this perfect for keeping the upper body warm when working from home on chilly days. Longer than most, cushiony soft and cosy without being too bulky, this one from UK-made brand Onesnug gets a big thumbs up from us. Read below for more information about this crochet pattern, supplies, stitches, and videos designed to help you. If you are completely new to crocheting, I recommend starting with beginner patterns and building up your confidence, pay attention to the skill level of my patterns and buy only if you are already at that level. If you are still unacquainted with this fashion phenomenon, a hooded blanket (also known as a blanket hoodie or by the brand name Oodie) is a cross between a giant hoodie sweatshirt and, you guessed it, a blanket.
