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 weaving colours and patterns. All our wool blankets are hand woven in Wales from 100% pure, new, wool. Nothing says hiraeth more than an iconic Welsh blanket.

Fleece to Fabric - We’ve all seen a wool fleece, but they are usually on the back of a live sheep walking around the fields! So how does a wet and maybe dirty fleece get to a cosy, warm, clean fabric suitable for us at FelinFach.
