Welsh Blankets, History, Facts and Current Day

Welsh blankets have a long history dating back to the 12th century but during the 20th century, the industry almost disappeared. Currently there is a resurgence in demand for Welsh blankets and traditional Welsh blanket patterns.

Today, the Caernarfon blanket pattern or the Caernarfon Portcullis pattern is the most popular. All our wool blankets are hand woven in Wales from 100% pure new UK wool. Available in traditional Welsh blanket patterns but also in more contemporary colours and patterns.

Nothing says hiraeth more than iconic Welsh blankets and throws.
