A Robbie Adrian blanket is made to be loved and used — not stored away for special occasions.
Made from natural fibers including organic cotton and genuine 100% silk charmeuse (18.5 momme), each blanket is designed to age beautifully with time and care. With gentle care, it can remain part of your family's everyday moments for years to come.
Here is how we recommend caring for your blanket while preserving the softness of the cotton and the natural beauty of the silk trim.
Machine washing
Yes, your blanket can be machine washed.
We recommend a gentle cycle with cold water and a few simple habits that help protect the silk border:
- Use a mild, dye-free detergent. A small amount is enough.
- Never use chlorine bleach. It can weaken silk fibers and may cause permanent discoloration.
- Skip fabric softener. It can leave residue on natural fibers and reduce their softness over time.
- Wash with other soft items only. Zippers, hooks, and rough fabrics may snag the silk charmeuse.
- A mesh laundry bag provides an extra layer of protection, especially for smaller blankets and baby loveys.
Drying
Air drying is the gentlest option and helps maintain the smooth silk border and the shape of the cotton knit.
Lay the blanket flat on a clean towel, gently reshape it, and allow it to dry away from direct sunlight.
If needed, a low-heat tumble dry is acceptable. Remove the blanket while it is still slightly damp, then smooth the silk trim gently by hand.
High heat can damage natural silk fibers, so avoid hot drying cycles.
Ironing
Most wrinkles in silk charmeuse naturally relax once the blanket is dry and laid flat.
If the cotton knit needs a touch-up, use a cool iron on the cotton area only. Avoid placing direct heat or steam directly on the silk border, as it may affect its natural luster.
When in doubt, let the silk rest — it often returns to its smooth appearance naturally.
Spot-treating
Life with a well-loved blanket includes little moments — and occasionally little spills.
Treat stains as soon as possible with cold water and a small amount of mild detergent.
On the cotton area, gently work the stain with your fingertips.
On the silk trim, blot gently rather than rubbing. Friction can damage silk fibers more easily than the stain itself.
Avoid stain removers containing bleach or harsh brighteners near the silk.
