Know before you buy
Because the wool is minimally processed and hand-spun, the blanket has a rustic, authentic texture. It is not as soft as commercially processed wool, but it offers a substantial, cozy feel that is characteristic of traditional hand-loomed textiles.
To maintain the integrity of the natural fibers, this blanket should be hand-washed and brushed. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can damage the hand-loomed construction and the wool blend.
Each blanket is hand-loomed by K’iche’ Mayan artisans, meaning there will be slight variations in the weave and color distribution. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that every piece is one-of-a-kind.
Yes, the durable wool-cotton blend makes it a versatile choice for camping trips or picnics. Its sturdy construction is designed to withstand more rugged environments while providing reliable warmth.
The blanket is made from 90% indigenous sheep wool, which has a natural, rustic hand-feel. While it is warm and cozy, those with high sensitivity to wool may prefer to use it as a decorative bed topper or a secondary layer rather than directly against bare skin.
