In France, blankets were available every night. If you sleep especially cool, then some lightweight silk long-underwear will be a lighter-weight solution than carrying a sleeping bag. Walking in September, the only night I needed the room heater was at Chanaleilless, up at the pass which is the highest elevation on the route.
I have not walked the route in Spain yet, but as I understand the other forum posters, in Spain the blankets are frequently not provided. (I'm not sure whether there is a difference between the municipal albergues and the private albergues on this point.)
