How to Layer Fleece Blankets for Year-Round Comfort
Look, we all love a good blanket. There’s just something about wrapping yourself up like a human burrito that makes life feel a little less stressful. But let’s be real—one blanket is never enough. In winter, you need layers to keep warm without feeling like you’re trapped under a mountain of bedding. And in summer? Well, no one wants to wake up sweating because they miscalculated their blanket game. That’s where layering fleece blankets comes in.
What is a Fleece Blanket?
Before we start layering like pros, let’s clear this up: what is a fleece blanket exactly? If you’ve ever touched a cloud (metaphorically, of course), that’s what fleece feels like. It’s soft, lightweight, and warm without being suffocating. Unlike wool, fleece doesn’t itch, and it dries quickly, making it a perfect all-year-round option.
And if you’re thinking, “Eh, I’ll just grab one from Fleece Blankets Mr Price Home,” let’s pause right there. Sure, they have some decent options, but Lily Grace Design is more exclusive than Fleece Blankets Mr Price Home. Our fleece blankets South Africa collection? Next-level softness. They’re custom-printed, luxurious, and made to last.

Layering Fleece Blankets Like a Pro
Now, let’s get into the magic of layering. It’s an art, really. Too much, and you overheat. Too little, and you’re shivering at 2 AM, regretting your life choices.
1. The Base Layer: Lightweight Fleece Throw
Start with a light fleece blanket or throw. This is your first line of defense—warm enough to keep you cozy but breathable so you don’t overheat. A Protea fleece blanket is perfect for this. It adds a touch of style while keeping things functional.
Browse our Protea fleece blankets.
2. The Middle Layer: A Thicker Fleece Blanket
This is your warmth booster. Go for a plush fleece blanket—one that feels like a giant hug. You want something thicker but still breathable, so you stay warm without waking up feeling like a roast chicken.

3. The Top Layer: Decorative Throw or Duvet
Here’s where you can mix things up. If it’s winter, layer a duvet on top for maximum warmth. If it’s summer, a lightweight throw does the trick. This layer is mostly for aesthetic purposes (because we’re all about that Instagram-worthy bedroom, right?).
Year-Round Adjustments
Now that you know how to layer, let’s tweak it for different seasons.
Winter: Maximum Coziness
- Base: Light fleece blanket
- Middle: Thick fleece blanket (or two, if you’re extra cold)
- Top: Duvet + fleece throw for aesthetics
Spring & Autumn: Balanced Comfort
- Base: Light fleece throw
- Middle: Plush fleece blanket
- Top: Thin duvet or decorative throw
Summer: Just Enough Coverage
- Base: Breathable fleece throw
- Top: Lightweight throw (or just the fleece if you’re a hot sleeper)
Why Fleece?
You might be wondering, why fleece instead of cotton or wool? Here’s why:
- Soft as a dream – No scratchy textures here.
- Lightweight yet warm – Keeps you cozy without the weight.
- Moisture-wicking – No waking up in a sweat.
- Easy to clean – Toss it in the wash, and you’re good to go.
And if you’re buying fleece blankets, don’t settle for mass-produced ones. Lily Grace Design makes custom-printed fleece blankets you won’t find anywhere else.
