    I have one with the same colors. It belonged to my husband's grandmother. We have had it for at least 45 years. It was yellow with cigarette smoke and in very used condition but it still has its tag, though it's different than the one on your blanket.

    For 25 years I re-enacted the American Fur Trade era and attended many Rendezvous of the early 1800s period. The blankets of choice sold there were the Early's Whitney Point blankets made in England and shipped to North America for the Indian Trade for mostly beaver pelts and other furs. They are 100% new wool in various sizes, colors, and weights. I became a blanket trader for a few years and gave many of these beautiful high quality blankets as gifts to my family and friends. I never used a sleeping bag and tried to be as historically correct as possible. I still use these blankets at home during Winter and sleep toasty warm. The company has been in business since the 1600s.

    The Pendleton's that you featured in this vid are the higher end "art" blankets that they offer. way pricey and highly collectable. I instead got the yakima camp blanket ages ago (around 130$ at the time) and I bloody love that blanket. Queen sized and got me through some very cold winters. Unfortunately, that same blanket now costs almost 260$ (the Twin sized blanket is 190$). I also have the Ektos 100% wool blanket and it has yet to pile/pill up on me. This will be my third winter with that one. I sleep under it every night (the pendleton is the couch blanket for when it gets cold in the living room)

    • @funbobtime
      @funbobtime Před 8 měsíci

      I’ve been wondering how the yakima is, I haven’t gotten my hands on one of those yet, and I do love the Ektos 100% wool. It’s good to hear such a good experience with it! I’ve wondered if because they use recycled wool if the quality is more dependent on the blanket itself. I have two of them, one that seems to thin out with each use, and one that’s as good as the day I got it.

    • @deercloun323
      @deercloun323 Před 7 měsíci

      Campo Alpaca has the best hand made Alpaca wool blankets by far. The absolute best prices also. I'm unafiliated with them, just a very pleased customer with about 10 of their blankets, a hat and two scarves. BTW, they are more artistic than anything Pendleton puts out. Keep warm in comfort friends!
