Dorm rooms are notoriously cold and draughty places. However, help is at hand! The Kingsfold Dorm Room Throw is a perfect weight to wrap yourself in to watch TV or use on your bed as an extra layer.

The throw is reversible and features a modern textural block stitch pattern for extra warmth and insulation.

There are three versions: The first has a two-tone colour-block pattern for a bold, graphic design, the second has wide asymmetric stripes and the third is worked in a single colour for a simple yet effective throw.
