Pendleton Blanket As An Excellent Decor Item
The most beautiful woolen blanket is the Pendleton blanket, a soft and cozy blanket, pure wool, classic, stylish and durable. Pendleton Mills started making woolen goods in 1895. They started off with blankets only but today, over 130 years later, they are making blankets, rugs, apparel and accessories.
The Pendleton factory is in Oregon and is a
family business. Pendleton goods are available directly from the factory but
otherwise from a Pendleton store online. The stores are specialist, although
you will find a few other suppliers, all luxury, selling Pendleton goods too.
The Pendleton Process
If you are looking for Pendleton blankets
online you will also find out and learn about the Pendleton wool process.
The wool is harvested and taken to the woolen mills where the wool is cleaned
and turned into fleece though a scouring process. Each individual fiber is
thread into a spool. Pendleton spins close to two million pounds of wool
annually, dyeing some with natural dyes and weaving the wool into the most
beautiful Native American patterns. They can literally weave hundreds of patterns
and they do. Your most difficult choice might be choosing which Pendleton
blanket to buy; they are all so beautiful.
Pendleton blankets come in an array of sizes,
styles and colors. They are warm and perfect for a cold winter night. Pendleton
blankets are also very much a style statement with many owners casually
throwing the blanket over the edge of a bed, sofa or chair. They also look
beautiful stacked in a pile next to the fireplace.
A Pendleton blanket is not the cheapest blanket on the market but it is of such good quality that it is going to last a lifetime. Choose the color and style you like, and perhaps start a collection. The Pendleton blanket is more than just a blanket - it is an investment too!
