FAQ
About Personalized Photo Blankets
Photo Blankets are designed to be used and washed, your photo is woven into
the blanket using different colored heavyweight Amilux yarn - this is not a
transfer process. They are machine-washable and dryable on a cool setting, and
soft to sleep with as well as making a great wall hanging. These blankets are
guaranteed not to run, bleed or fade under normal conditions and are hypoallergenic.
These heirloom portrait knits are entirely custom made, this is not screen printing
of any sort, rather a true knitted item with over half a million stitches in
each blanket!
What Photos Work Best?
Photos with high contrast work great for photo blankets. For example if the
person has blonde hair, a dark background works best; if the person has dark
hair, a lighter background works best. Photos can be color or black and white.
Photos will be enlarged to create the most beautiful rendition possible.
Your photo can be horizontal or vertical for all of the blankets.
- please include your name, order number and item you purchased so we can match
it with your order. Please attach photo to email as an uncompressed jpg file
with at least 300 dpi (dots per inch) and at least 300 pixels by 400 pixels for
the 30" by 40" blankets and at least 400 pixels by 600 pixels for the 40" by 60"
