Abstract
A material configured as a blanket to cover a person's body has a structure of an interlooped layered yarn in which the layered yarn includes an outer tube extending longitudinally from a first end to a second end. The outer tube defines a conduit also extending longitudinally from the first end to the second end. A fiber material is disposed within the conduit and extends longitudinally from the first end to the second end.
Claims30
A weighted blanket comprising:
- a layered yarn configured to form a weighted material comprising loops in an interlooped pattern, the weighted material comprising a top side and a bottom side, wherein the layered yarn comprises:
- an outer tube comprising a length and an inner wall inner wall defining a conduit extending longitudinally throughout the length of the outer tube;
- and
- a fiber material in a substantially longitudinal direction within the conduit;
- wherein the interlooped pattern is comprises openings between the loops, the openings configured to allow airflow between the top side and the bottom side for providing breathability.
