The rock and clove hitch fastener is a very good idea. Thanks for posting. --- Funny how searching for ways to sleep warm in a wool blanket will have YT pop me up a 10 year old video that answers questions. Thank you.

I've got my italian wool blanket in my bathtub soaking in an entire bottle of strawberry smelling suave conditioner and sensitive skin shaving cream right now. I'm going to use if for minimalist camping next to a big fire. I hope the mothball smell goes away and the moistierisers soften up the hair.

Yup, current research is saying that head/face/scalp skin loses the same amount of heat per sq inch as any other patch of skin. But cool video thanks!
@ronmiller79165 жыл бұрын
Yep, seems that the military did a study in the '50's in the arctic where they put thermal clothing on subjects except for their head. Some PR firm did a campaign for a hat company and twisted the results saying that 40-50% of heat was lost thru the head. Then the US army put it in their manual and it became the truth. Damned funny the lies we believe.
@survivortechharold65755 жыл бұрын
That whole concept is based on your head [including face] and neck being exposed. Bare skin will always loose most of your heat regardless what body parts are exposed.

Great video! A question.. I just got my first wool blanket the other day. If you have ever slept in a sleeping bag, can you take a guess at what temperature this wool blanket will keep you warm down to? Sleeping bags are good down to... 65 degrees, or 15 degrees. If you would have to take a guess, what would the wool blanket be rated at?
@tbrew82222 жыл бұрын
Just like sleeping bags, it depends on that particular model. It is not a super hero - do anything. You may need several at 40 degrees, it all depends on the variables he talks about here

Just get a goose down sleeping bag and be done with it. Most wool blankets (1) will keep you warm to about 50 deg. Anything at a lower temp you need more. The big problem though is when down gets wet, your screwed.
@gerhardbiebl97787 жыл бұрын
100% sheep wool is unbeatable. If it gets wet, it heats up on its own keeping you warm even when wet. This is a chemical reaction of the sheep fat within the wool which stays forever even if you wash it frequently. I myself use the danish army wool blanket, which is the biggest and heaviest 100% wool blanket i found. And it was a real bargain for about 20 €.

The repro isn't as thick or 100% wool but for the price I'm happy with it and keep it on my bed and take on overnights. Hopefully it won't get lost like the original.

Heat loss from the head is the same as any uncovered part of the body of the same size, about 10%. If laying down after walking the thighs lose a lot of heat, being the largest muscles. Wool relies on air for insulation, the more water in the wool, the less air and the less insulation. A completely wet wool blanket is no more insulating than no blanket at all, and if air is moving over it, evaporation will have a significant cooling effect on the body. All insulation needs to be kept dry, and if wet needs to dry fast, either from body heat or external heat source, before the cooling effect reduces core temperature to dangerous levels.
