    The things that exist that I would never think of.

    The last thing I want is a blanket that weighs more.

    As weighted blankets exist, do weightless blankets exist? Or do I just crank up the heat so I don't need a blanket?

    Just a choice between cotton and wool. Wool blankets are heavier, but very warm, but then cotton blankets are light and comfortable; in Alaska with sub-zero temps, I use two cotton blankets as sheets to crawl between and no more. Inexpensive and easy
    to clean.
