Fleece Blanket Giveaway 1!

I am excited to announce Free Is Sweet has teamed up with Crooked Brook to sponsor some fleece blanket giveaways.







Fleece blankets (also called fleece throws) are made from Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or other synthetic fibers and can also be made out of recycled PET bottles or recycled fleece. They are lightweight, warm, soft, and hydrophobic; holding less than 1% of their weight in water which allows them to retain much of their insulating powers even when wet.
Fleece blankets are machine washable, dry quickly, are very breathable and will not lose their thickness when compressed; it does not matter if you crush, pull, twist or wad up the blanket it will come back to its original shape and thickness.
It is these properties that make fleece blankets ideal around your household or farm and these are blank, wholesale fleece blankets with a slight imperfection or custom embroidered fleece blankets with an embroidery mistake in the corner.
There are many things you could do with these second quality fleece throws. First, if it is a smudge that can be washed out, you may be able to use the blankets as they are. If not, you could decorate it with a crocheted edge or make fleece pullovers, scarves, booties, hats, vests and lots of other items.
These fleece blankets are great keep to in your vehicle, for your cat, dog or a baby animal that needs to be kept warm.
Actually, you could do whatever you want with it.
The prize for this Fleece Blanket Giveaway is a 50” x 60”, 100% polyester fleece blanket with a slight imperfection or an embroidery mistake. The color of the fleece blanket will be determined by what Crooked Brook has at the time the winner is announced, and they will try their best to send the winner’s blanket in the color they would like to win.
