Luxury Woollen Blankets & Scarves - Made in Devon

Many years ago, my grandmother gave me a special blanket that had been given to her as a child. I treasured this blanket and the feeling of comfort and warmth that it gave me still resonates today and I think of her every time I use it. So, when we found ourselves looking after a flock of Shetland sheep, the first thing I wanted to do was re-create that wonderful feeling of nostalgia.

About our Blankets

Our blankets are beautifully made using soft Shetland wool and made with care in the beautiful South West of England. I hope that they will also be passed on to future generations who will enjoy the same warmth and comfort that only an individual and unique blanket can do. They make wonderful wedding presents, a gift for a new born or something special for a friend. Each one will become an heirloom that will have a story to pass on to the next generation.

About Us

The wool from the Shetland sheep is naturally soft and is thought to be the one of the best wools in the British Isles due to the crimp and strength of the yarn. It’s natural colour comes in shades of cream through to dark brown and we try to separate the darker wools to give contrast to the blankets. We do however dye some wool to give colour into the collection by using non chemical dyes and colours also change year on year. We also weave in some merino wool to make the blankets extra soft.
