Acrylic mink blankets have nothing to do with real mink fuzz or any other type of fur. Instead, every acrylic mink blanket is made out of some type of artificial fabric, mainly acrylic. This whole trend of soft acrylic mink blankets is even called with the phrase, "mink blanket". Even though the fabric is a artificial acrylic, and not in fact genuine "mink", they name them mink blankets to summon up the picture of something very malleable. A good quality acrylic mink blanket is incredibly luxurious and comfortable.
