Wasn't there a blanket like this in the (in-)famous bedroom scene of A Clockwork Orange?

Sorta like it, at least.


Speaking of which, anyone know where you can get those two Ludwig V. B. posters in that image?


All I could find was a disappointing mosaic version: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BEETHOVEN-MOSAIC-35-X25-INCH-B-W-WAL...


Brilliant! I hadn't seen that, thanks.


What's the advantage? I only see that it might "break" earlier because of many additional stitches, right?


Looks beautiful. Extra loft.


Is it just me, or is $250 pretty expensive for a blanket?


Yes, the Italian cashmere wool is quite expensive, as well as the shipping and customs fees out of Spain. I wish that I could sell it for cheaper!


Looks like it is cashmere, so no, not really as far as I've experienced.


Neat product!
