Fortunately we stumbled across this viral TikTok video that breaks down the best way to fold your Oodie for storage — and it’s blown our minds. They may also help to save you money on your heating bill this winter too, as heating the body is always a cheaper option than heating the home; ideal if you work from home or spend long periods of time bingeing Netflix on the sofa. The Cheshire Cat Hooded Blanket was designed with the Halloween lover in mind. If you like spooky & dark-themed decorations and designs, this blanket is for you.
We especially loved the long, snug-fitting elasticated cuffs – perfect for keeping heat in and sleeves out of food – and the protective bag it comes in, for storing it neatly away in warmer months. Read below for more information about this crochet pattern, supplies, stitches, and videos designed to help you. The 2in1 Cheshire cat hooded blanket acts as a fun blanket (complete with mittens and a hood) and decoration for the room. 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. If you buy a hooded blanket from another brand, make sure to read the care instructions on the label for the specific directions. ARE OODIES ONE SIZE FITS ALL? Of course, you can also always add one to your Christmas wishlist and let someone else treat you to a cosy winter.
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. For us, though, Oodie just takes the top spot for keeping the body at the perfect temperature and for its vast range of designs and viral fame. Are hooded blankets worth it? There are a few different styles – and prices – on the market, but the hoodies from specialist retailers like Oodie, Kudd.ly, Onesnug and Snuggly are all very similar, if we’re being honest.
If there is one good thing to have come out of the past few years, it’s the rise of the hooded blanket.
WITH temperatures dropping and heating costs rising, an oversized hooded blanket should be an essential item of loungewear this autumn and winter. 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 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. It’s not the warmest one we tried (think late autumn chills rather than depths-of-winter, below-freezing temperatures) but we’d probably say this was the most practical, while this pale pink colour we chose (prettier in real life than our phone camera could capture) is about as ‘feminine’ as one of these items could get.Today’s hooded blankets are a world away from embarrassingly old, greying loungewear you wouldn’t be seen dead in.
I was given an Oodie by my sister for my birthday in 2020 and to be brutally honest, my first reaction was to laugh. “There’s no way I’ll wear this,” I mused to myself while politely thanking her for the gift. But fast forward three years and the honest truth is, I couldn’t live without it. That’s because during the colder months it’s easily saved me thousands in heating bills because instead of turning my heater on, I’ve been able to pop my Oodie on instead.Hannah says the Oodie is great to wear if you’re working from home.
