Material

A cotton cellular blanket is typically made from 100% cotton, which is preferred for its softness, breathability, and durability. When it comes to technical specifications such as GSM and yarn counts, these can vary depending on the manufacturer and the intended use of the blanket.

Yarn count refers to the thickness of the yarn used to weave the fabric. A higher yarn count generally means a finer, smoother fabric. For a cotton cellular blanket, a typical yarn count might be between 30s and 60s, with higher counts indicating a finer and more luxurious blanket.
