Disclosed is a weighted material that is configured to effectuate deep pressure therapy to a person when a piece of the weighted material is used as a blanket over the person's body. A length of layered yarn is interlooped to form the piece of weighted material. The layered yarn includes an outer tube extending longitudinally from a first end to a second end. The outer tube defines a conduit extending longitudinally therethrough from the first end to the second end. A plurality of inner layers of material are disposed within the conduit and extend longitudinally from the first end to the second end. The interlooped length of yarn, by itself, is configured and sufficiently weighted to effectuate deep pressure therapy to a person when the blanket lies over the person's body. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.
