El Paso Designs Peyote Hippie Blanket Classic Mexican Style Falsa Stripe Pattern in Vivid Peyote Colors. Throw, Bed, Tapestry, or Yoga Blanket. Hand Woven Acrylic, 57" x 74"

I have been practicing yoga for a couple of years and I always see these neat yoga blankets in the background of the yoga videos I watch on youtube. I finally decided to get one and was surprised at how vibrant these blankets are. It was so hard to choose a color because I was torn between three of them. I had my husband break the tie for me and we ordered this one. It is very thick and vibrant with some comfortable weight to it. It came just a tad stiff, but I hear that it softens up after washing. I have yet to wash mine so I will report back after I do on the softness.This blanket is exactly what I wanted and then some. I couldn't ask for brighter/stronger colors. The quality is great and it feels like it will last for a long time. I have already become quite attached to this thing. I wrap it around me in the computer chair, or on the couch. I use it to set my stool and kneel on during meditation. I use it to pad my knees during yoga and sometimes to cover myself up during savasana. Also, when folded it has a weight to it that I love to lay across my hips and pelvis during savasana to relax after a yoga session.I would not change a thing about this blanket. I really wouldn't. When I can afford to I plan on buying the other colors that I loved.

The MOST VIBRANT, TIGHTLY-WEAVED Mexican Blanket OUT THERE !!!!!AND I do not say this lightly. I had purchased this to use on my outdoor concrete patio for putting an extra chair upon for BBQing with guests.This is SOOO huge and SOOO vibrant that I instead used it for my kitchen floor. I would have had to use it folded over length-wise AND THEN AGAIN width-wise for my outside use..... but it was SOOOO BEYOND NICE that I didn't dare put it outside.I have recently moved without most of my life's belongings and in needing to start over and doing my research... this puppy rocked my boat!! HOWEVER, upon seeing it in person ------- I TRULY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT YOU WILL EVER FIND A NICER BLANKET OUT THERE!!! The weave is tighter than any other MexBlanket I have ever seen. Yes, of course if you've a pet -- that might change over time but only due to how it is weaved that materials that it is weaved from.The colors are pure and vibrant!! What you will normally see searching for these kinds of blankets are colors weaved with whitish threads bringing the vibrancy down to nothing. The colors in this blanket are beyond vibrant! They truly look their color without dusty interference of whitish interthreads that make the blanket what it is.I've been around the block a few times and have come to know excellent quality when I receive it....... El Paso Designs offers a quality rug that I have never seen the likes of otherwise (and no, I do not work for them... my 1st order ever from them).The vibrancy and true color that you see in the pictures here ---- well, expect to also see it in your home! No dulling whitish threads to dull even one single color of this blanket.I personally would consider this blanket a 50-star item even if I could only offer 10 stars.(I have yet to wash it and time will only tell....but judging what arrived vs what else I've seen...... I do not foresee any problems (i hope). Washing on Cold should keep the colors from fading, washing it should not IMHO even affect the FULL color vibrancy of colors. This blanket will COLOR-POP anything you put it on!! Go ahead and check out the other blankets here on amazon (or anywhere else for that matter) ---- they will consist of that whitish toning-down threads that are not vibrant and end up subduing colors.On a final note, I was not intending any new kitchen rug to be a Mexican Serape Style moment...... but I am beyond gosh-darned happy I bought this rug and chose to use it otherwise (even if for now (yes, not my norm style indoors))!!! Even if I do end up moving it outside due to my tastes insides ----- I will still be thrilled to have purchased this rug/blanket...... YOU CANNOT AND WILL NOT FIND SUCH VIBRANT COLORS in this style of Mexican rug/blanket IMHO as of Nov 2016 here on amazon at least due to every other Mex blanket pic I see!!!!!....50 stars El Paso Designs!!!! Thank You!!!!! :)I post a pic or two here of the actual colors of the rug in my kitchen. Due to CFL indoor lighting vs camera sensitivity, it truly is too hard to capture the colors showing the entire rug ---- but hopefully you'll get a taste of the actual colors weaved in this rug VS the 1970's item that we all used to wear around a campfire....and that is the only thing I have seen here for sale in 2016 other than THIS blanket :)(these pics hopefully show what I never expected to receive and NOT what the older (and apparently newer) blankets look like as a whole..... NOTHING COMPARES to this blanket's colors in any way, shape, or appearance from the average mexican blanket. It is decently thick, weaved well, and I personally would never EVER consider buying another blanket from ANY OTHER COMPANY than this at this moment in time.)

I swear these are even more beautiful in person! It's nice and heavy and feels very durable. Not scratchy at all like these style blankets can tend to be. I got the green and yellow blanket and the dark green color is so pretty in person. Love! Update- ordered a second one. Also way more beautiful in person. Instructions say to dry clean, but I just tossed it in the washing machine and drier and it came out perfect. Very soft after a wash.

Beautiful brown, turquoise, and red colors. Blanket is heavy and firm. However, the design is not good as a yoga blanket. The black and white motif is weaved differently thus feels like a bump. If I folded it to sit on or to line the yoga mat during yogi rest, I can feel the bumps.

This blanket has pretty colors, it has a heavy weave and is quite warm. I washed it a few times to get the funky petrol odor out of it including one bath with an ammonia rinse which usually kills funky smells, and the smell still lingered. I gave up and put it aside in the spare bedroom for a month or two because I didn't want that smell in my camper (spare bedroom guests, beware!). The smell did eventually fade and the blanket is fine now. The spare bedroom smells OK, too. If you buy one, plan on it possibly needing a long hiatus for the stink to wear off. Otherwise, its one of the better made Falsas that I have due to it being heavy weight and a tight weave.

I mean...im not mad at it. I wish we could pick colors, but am happy with the color I got (was hoping beyond hope I didn't get an orange..it's not my thing). It's very thick and heavy and looks to be really well made. It is on the stuff side and not exactly soft, I've already washed and dried it...still has a smell to it, maybe a few more washes and it'll be gone. It doesn't stink per say, just a odd one, and hopefully it will soften. I do love it and hope to order more in the future. I would recommendUpdate....been about 4 washes and dries now and still somewhat stiff. BUT it's holding up, no loose threads. the smell is gone, now smells like gain lol.

Great blanket. Very well made and exactly as described. I was pleasantly surprised to open the package and not be assaulted by the horrible smell that accompanies so many items shipped from overseas. This was made in Mexico and smells nice - like cedarwood. It's very thick and sturdy material, made of acrylic and polyester. I included two photos in my review - one showing the blanket folded in half and one showing a close up of the threads. Colors are vibrant and I'm perfectly happy with this product.

Nice and heavy and good value for money.Its quite rough but i dont mind. Paired with a fleece youll be warm just about anywhere.

Colour as shown, nice and big.Hoping the stiffness of the blanket goes over time, very rough texture.Looking forward to brightening up a room.

The weight and quality were perfect, survived the first wash, exactly what I wanted and needed.

It is excellent quality 😃

Love the colours. It was a gift, she loved it!

The blanket is very nice. Fast shipping.

Great quality. Fast shipping. Beautiful blankets. Worked perfectly for me. Super happy. Thank you very much. 5 stars for sure.

Amazing colors!

Beautiful colors, nice heavy throw. May buy another!
