I purchased this blanket in gray, which has ivory colored "sherpa" wool-like backing. I believe I bought the blanket in either a twin or full size because we wanted a large, soft cozy blanket that the whole family can snuggle under on the couch when having movie night. We were constantly fighting over our existing blankets that were "throw size" because they barely fit one person, or maybe two kids. In any case, this blanket is absolutely perfect for what we wanted it for. The decorative stitching on the colored side makes it nice enough to have out and not be embarrassed, although this blanket is so big that I don't leave it out, but have it tucked away in a cabinet to pull out when we want it. Whether you put this on your bed or as an oversized throw on your couch you won't be worry. It's slippery soft on the colored side, and warm sherpa on the other side and in general is very thick and cozy. Thrilled with the purchase.
