How To Remake Your Bed: Get A New Dohar And Pillow Cases


Winter calls for hot chocolate and curling up on the sofa watching your favourite rom com. You curl up inside a blanket and try to keep the cold weather out. Problem is, your blanket is not up to the task and you either feel too hot inside it or cold. Fleece or wool blankets are good for really cold weather, but they are not good options in moderately cold weather or when the air conditioning is off.
Why not get a dohar instead?

What Is A Dohar?

A ‘dohar‘is a term derived from the Hindi word ‘Doharana’. This Hindi word means ‘a thin blanket’. The term originated from some parts of North India, though the exact origin of the dohar is not known. However, it is made in Rajasthan, some parts of Gujarat, and also Uttar Pradesh.

A dohar is a blanket woven in beaten cotton to form a firm but yielding filling for the blanket. It is
covered with a layer of muslin cloth. It is a bad conductor of heat, so a dohar traps heat inside and keeps the user comfortable in cold weather. Muslin cloth was rare and expensive in ancient times, so dohars were used only by royalty and wealthy people.

However, the muslin covering was later replaced by a cotton one, so the dohar became more accessible to all sections of society. The humble dohar is a deceptively simple piece of bed linen that offers good coverage and keeps you warm in cold weather. Today, dohars are manufactured by leading bed linen brands like Welspun in India. They are available in both single and double sizes.

 Which Brand Is Best For Dohars?

Welspun is one of the country’s leading brands in bed linen. They have a wide range of dohars and also bed sheets and comforters.

We recommend Welspun dohars for your home. Every Welspun dohar is beautifully crafted using finest workmanship and high attention to detail. Besides, their prices are amongst the most competitive in the market, and you are certain of getting the best value for your money when you buy dohars from them. More than the dohar price, it’s make, material and longevity potential are the factors you should consider when buying a dohar.

 How to care for your dohar

The brand you buy the dohar from specifies how to care for your dohar. Follow these instructions carefully to ensure that your dohar is not ruined in the wash, nor do its colours fade.

The dohar is crafted such that its filling does not clump up with use. However, washing it on a high setting might displace the filling, so only use low tumble option. Also, avoid using bleach in the wash, or dry cleaning the dohar. A mild liquid detergent can wash the dohar clean, while you might use a fabric softener for the first few washes if the dohar feels too scratchy.
