[AS.weighted blankets]

So... I can find weighted blankets, as well as instructions on how to make them, which is good. (yay!)

But I'm not even sure that what I'm actually looking for is possible. I can approximate weighted blankets in the winter by piling lots of blankets on myself. But, in summer, it's too warm and/or humid for that. So I'm trying to find something which would have weight but no to nearly no heat retention (the equivalant of a very thin sheet, or nothing at all). I'm not sure this is possible, though...

(instructions), and a couple of ebay stores which sell them. Also, some other stores with sensory stimulation stuff, just because lots of them are nifty. :)

If you do not need an excessive amount of weight, try a light down comforter with a duvet cover. They provide enough weight and yet remain comfortable in the winter and the summer. You just throw another one on top in the winter.

I have something called a "down sheet" that seems to be somewhat like youre describing, and does indeed give a nice feeling of "ooh, weight".
