“Can you please pass me that blanket?” is an all too common phrase this time of year. When the air gets crisp, adding a throw blanket to your sofa or bedspread is an absolute must. It’ll be there to keep you warm all season long while you’re watching a movie, reading a book or, you know, hibernating until spring. We’ve rounded up five stylish and snuggle-inducing throw blankets that you need for your home right now.

You can’t go wrong with a Pendleton blanket — the American textile manufacturing company creates high-quality woolen blankets and throws in solids, stripes, plaids and Native American-inspired prints. The 5th Avenue throw is featherweight and made of superfine merino wool that’s ultra-cozy.

You don’t have to spend a lot to give your home a fall-like feel. Switch out brighter colors in the bedroom and living room for more muted tones, like the grey in the Ormhassel throw from IKEA. The textured knit reminds us of our favorite fall sweater.
4. Faux fur ombre throw in mocha from West Elm, $79:
