Pendleton Home Collection Blanket The role of the blanket is woven deep in the history of Native Americans. For centuries it has been used for warmth, medium exchange, artistic expression, and as an important element of ceremonies and recognition. Pendleton Woolen Mills began weaving in 1909 and be came known as a Indian Trade Blanket. Pendleton weavers and designers worked with their Native American customers to develop color and design preferences. Horizontal bands of soft color echo the weaving grasses, shallow ponds, and gentle undulations of the Nebraska Sandhills, an “ocean of grass” that is the largest plant-anchored sand dune region in the United States. This wool blanket is dyed, woven and hand-finished in the Pacific Northwest. This blanket features: Sandhill Beige Color Intricate patterns 100% Wool Made in USA Dimensions: 64” x 80”
