Hey my bed sheets and blanket will get washed once a month. My blaket is pretty light nothing too thick . I would do it once a month or every other month. my sofa blankets i will usually wash couple times a month because the pups love to lay all over it and stink it up lol .

I wash my blankets twice a month... or every three weeks if i am really busy with a lot of household chores... or if there is no sunlight because of continous rains... i think it is better to wash blankets every two weeks... so that it will always be clean and we are free from germs and viruses that might endanger our health...

Maybe because the weather here is really hot and we don't really need to use it. So I will washed it before and after using and keep it.

My husband sweat alot too, that's why we don't need a blanket till year end when its cold. My kids doesn't like blanket too. They don'e use them even if I place one on their bed. So I keep all the blanket till end of the year.

I usually wash or change sheets every week or so, and the blanket about every other time while washing sheets. So it works out to about once or twice a month for the blanket.

oh yuck I could not imagine only washing my blankets only twice a year. I sometimes wash mine once a month or more often.(Sheets get washed a minimum of once a week) If I have hot flashes then the sheets and blankets get sweaty , so I wash them. I have to especially wash the top blankets because we have pets. I wash the blankets on my spare room beds every time it gets a new occupant .
