Best Answer

They insulate from the surrounding air. Actually the warmth you feel is your own body heat reflected and retained by the blanket. keeping your body heat sealed within the blanket. Your body is at average 98.6 degrees so most heat is getting out of your body. The same reason clothes keep us warm. Humans don't have fur like dogs cats and grizzly. So we have to make due.
