Black, grey, white and purple in four wide bands, the Flags Importer Asexual Pride Polar Fleece Blanket brings the ace flag off the pole and onto the sofa. It's a soft 50 x 60 inch pride blanket, so it works as everyday comfort and as a quiet bit of visibility in a bedroom, dorm or shared living room.

The four ace stripes

The asexual flag came out of a community design contest run by the Asexual Visibility and Education Network. Reading top to bottom, black stands for asexuality, grey for grey-asexuality and demisexuality, white for sexuality, and purple for community. On this pride blanket the bands run across the full width, so the flag reads clearly whether it's folded over the arm of a couch or spread across a bed.

How it feels

The fabric is polyester polar fleece with a plush surface: light, warm and quick to dry, without the weight of a knitted throw. The edges are finished with a rolled hem rather than left raw, which keeps them from fraying in the wash.

Where the pride blanket fits

At 50 by 60 inches, it's lap and shoulder size. One person can wrap up in it on the couch or at an outdoor movie, and it covers the top of a twin bed as an accent. It isn't large enough to work as a full bedspread for a double or queen.

As a gift

It's a gentle way to show support for an ace friend or family member who has just come out, or to mark Ace Week in October. Add a matching 3' x 5' asexual flag for a wall or window.

Helpful Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers about Flags Importer Asexual Pride Polar Fleece Blanket – 50" x 60".

What do the colours on the asexual flag mean?

From top to bottom: black for asexuality, grey for the grey area between sexual and asexual, including demisexuality, white for sexuality, and purple for the ace community as a whole.

How big is the asexual pride blanket?

It measures 50 x 60 inches, a standard throw size. It covers one adult comfortably on a couch or in a reading chair, and drapes across the top of a single bed.

How do I wash a fleece flag blanket without fading it?

It's machine washable. A cool wash with similar colours, no bleach, and air-drying or a low dryer setting will keep the black and purple from bleeding and the fleece from going flat.

Can I hang the blanket on a wall like a flag?

Yes. The fleece is light enough for curtain clips or a tension rod along the 60-inch edge. For a flag made to fly outside, the 4 x 6 inch ace stick flag or a polyester flag is the better choice.

Is this a good gift for someone who just came out as ace?

It's a low-key, practical way to say you see them. It's something they'll use every day, and it doesn't put them on the spot the way a loud slogan item might.
