Stay cozy on the coldest nights with the Winter Checked Handwoven Wool Blanket , masterfully crafted in our Maine studio using 100% locally sourced New England Corriedale wool. Designed with an intricate double-layer weave construction, this thick, heavy-weight winter blanket locks in exceptional warmth while displaying a classic checkered pattern of light and dark hand-dyed yarns.
A true labor of artisanal love, our weavers hand-tie 3,456 individual warp knots onto our antique looms just to set up each limited run. Designed to be a meaningful gift passed down through generations, every blanket includes a dedicated provenance card to record its family history and ships in our custom linen storage bag with protective aromatic cedar slats.
King Size Weave Orientation: Due to the traditional width of our antique wooden looms, King Size blankets feature silk-bound edges at the left and right sides of the bed, with the weave pattern running vertically.
Woven, washed and finished at our mill on the Lamoille River in Wolcott, Vermont, where the same water that turned the first wheel in 1871 still runs past the dye house.
Machine wash cold on the wool cycle, dry flat
Wool does not need washing nearly as often as people think. Air it outside on a
dry day and most of what you would wash out simply leaves on its own. When it does
need water, use a wool-safe soap, never hot, and never a machine dryer unless the
label above says otherwise.
Pills in the first season are normal on a napped face. Shave them off with a
sweater comb and the cloth settles for good.
