How to Toss a Throw Blanket?

Published in Blanket Styling 2 mins read


To toss a throw blanket using the Pinch-and-Toss method for an effortless look, you first fold the blanket in half, then pinch the middle fold, and finally toss it onto your desired piece of furniture with a snappy flick of the wrist.

## The Pinch-and-Toss Method Explained

This technique, described in the reference, is a simple way to style a throw blanket with a casual, laid-back appearance rather than a neatly folded or draped one. It focuses on the action of tossing the blanket after a specific initial fold.

Here's a breakdown of the steps involved:

1.  **Prepare the Blanket:** Start by folding your throw blanket in half.
2.  **Identify the Pinch Point:** Locate the *middle fold* of the halved blanket. This is where you will grip it.
3.  **Perform the Toss:** Pinch the middle fold firmly.
4.  **Execute the Flick:** Using a "snappy flick of the wrist," toss the pinched blanket onto the furniture where you want it to land.

This method is designed to create a relaxed, unstudied look where the blanket falls naturally. The flick of the wrist helps guide the blanket's placement as it lands.
