(Bloomberg) -- Winter is coming. It's time for a comfortable-yet-masculine blanket to wrap in, for nights you choose to stay in and binge on your favorite shows on Netflix.

We first saw this handsome blanket on model Sean O'Pry as he walked down the runaway during Joseph Abboud's S/S '17 show in New York. Initially the blankets weren't going to be produced and sold, but when customers expressed interest after seeing the one in the show, the brand opted to create a limited quantity to be sold in-store and online. Each blanket takes approximately one week to make and is made out of the fine Italian wool that goes into Abboud suits, and the stars are sewn on by hand in the Abboud factory in Bedford, Mass.
