I went through home decor guides and thousands of verified buyer reviews to find eight throws that are soft, wash well and look lovely draped over a chair.

The throws

1

A chunky knit throw: most beautiful

The big, squishy knit you see all over Pinterest. It looks amazing on a bed or chair.

Good for: decor lovers. Keep in mind: it's heavy and best spot cleaned.

Price range: $$

2

A sherpa fleece throw: warmest

Fluffy sherpa on one side, soft flannel on the other: like a hug.

Good for: cold nights. Keep in mind: it can shed a little at first.

Price range: $ Kenna's pick

A cotton waffle throw: best lightweight
