A polka-dotted throw woven in Peru, with a front of cotton, wool and alpaca and a back of pure cotton. Four percent polyamide runs through the face for structure, which is the one synthetic here and the reason it sits below the all-natural throws.
Front: 51% Cotton, 35% Wool, 10% Alpaca, 4% Polyamide / Back: 100% Cotton. Made in Peru. Dry clean only.
The Prism Alpaca Throw Blanket is 51% cotton, 35% wool, 10% alpaca, 4% nylon. Cotton is the soft everyday plant fiber, but conventionally grown with heavy pesticides. Wool is a natural animal fiber that insulates and resists odor; favor untreated. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 74 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest.

Cotton is the soft everyday plant fiber, but conventionally grown with heavy pesticides. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.
Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
