Beautifully crafted and ethically hand-loomed by traditional woman artisans from the Himalayan belt. Drape it over your bed or cozy up on the couch on those cold winter nights while reading a book. Perfect for picnics, sitting around the firepit or star-gazing. Our throws are made from merino wool and angora wool, all naturally dyed. Any slight imperfection is an individual expression of that artisan’s “perfect” handy work.

Material: 100% Merino wool, Angora wool, natural dyes

Size: 50” x 70”

Wool has excellent natural dirt-resistant properties which makes it unnecessary to wash often. Let your blanket air outside in humid weather. If your blanket still needs maintenance, please dry clean only. Iron at medium temperature. Do not tumble dry or use bleach.
