Wool blankets are not only warm and cozy, but they can also be quite versatile. Adding a lining to your wool blanket can not only enhance its appearance but also increase its durability. Whether you want to add a decorative touch or protect your blanket from wear and tear, lining a wool blanket is a relatively simple DIY project. In this guide, we’ll take you through the steps to line your wool blanket.

What You’ll Need

  • Wool blanket
  • Lining fabric
  • Measuring tape
  • Fabric scissors
  • Sewing machine (optional)
  • Pins
  • Needle and thread
  • Iron and ironing board

Step 1: Measure the Wool Blanket

Start by measuring the dimensions of your wool blanket. This will help you determine the size of the lining fabric you’ll need. Use a measuring tape to measure the width and length of the blanket, and note down the measurements.

Step 2: Cut the Lining Fabric

Using the measurements of your wool blanket, cut the lining fabric to match its size. Make sure to leave a small seam allowance on all sides to provide room for sewing. If you prefer a snug fit, you can cut the lining fabric slightly smaller than the blanket.

Step 3: Prepare the Wool Blanket

Before attaching the lining, make sure your wool blanket is clean and free from any dirt or debris. You may also want to iron the blanket to smooth out any creases or wrinkles.

Step 4: Pin and Sew the Lining

Place the lining fabric on top of the wool blanket, with the right sides facing each other. If needed, you can pin the edges of the lining fabric to secure it in place. Using a sewing machine or a needle and thread, sew along the edges, leaving one side open. This will create a pocket that the blanket can fit into.

Step 5: Attach the Opening

Turn the blanket right side out through the opening left in the previous step. Gently push out the corners to ensure a neat finish. If desired, you can hand-stitch the opening closed or leave it as is for easy removal of the blanket.

Step 6: Finishing Touches

Once the lining is securely attached to the wool blanket, give it a final press with an iron to remove any wrinkles. This will help the blanket and lining lay flat and look neat. Your lined wool blanket is now ready to provide you with warmth and comfort!

Remember, lining your wool blanket not only adds beauty and durability, but it also helps protect the wool from excessive wear. Choose a lining fabric that complements the color and design of your blanket, or get creative with contrasting patterns for a unique look.

Now that you know how to line a wool blanket, give it a try and transform your cozy blanket into a true masterpiece!
