Linen is a plant fiber from flax that is airy, absorbent and softens with washing. A linen blanket has a natural, slightly rumpled look. Muslin is a loosely woven cotton gauze, sold in multiple layers to give weight, and waffle weaves add texture. All three are popular for a relaxed, natural bedding style.
The six blankets below are queen size or close, with two pure linen blankets and four cotton or blended weaves. Fibers, layers and sizes come from each product’s listing page. We have not used these blankets ourselves, and we make no health claims; the listings include skin and sleep wording that we leave out.
