Tzitzit for blankets?

Hi,

Four-cornered blankets do not require tzizit, even if a person sleeps in them after morning has begun. Their essential function is a nighttime function. Further, there is debate as to whether lying in a four-cornered item renders it a 'garment.'

(Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 18:2; Mishneh Berurah 18:8)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
