I am thoroughly confused. I have a crocheted wool blanket. The holes on it are large enough to put objects through, yet it keeps heat better than any of my other blankets or even a duvet. How does this work? Don’t the holes on it allow air back and forth? Wouldn’t heat escape the same way?
I’ve tried searching the sub, and mostly see things about wet wool, I didn’t find anything on crocheted a d apologize if I missed the answer elsewhere.
I am not sure how to tag this… so… other?

Air holds heat well. It’s hard to heat up and it’s hard to cool down.
The problem, though, is that air *moves*.
But your blanket traps this air, whether this is in holes in the blanket or under the blanket itself, and this stops the air from moving.
Double glazing works the same way as well!
