Desert colors, turned all the way down.

Sage, taupe, soft brown and bone in stepped diamonds. Sun-bleached rather than saturated. It is the closest thing in this line to a neutral and it still has more character than most patterned blankets.

The one I would put in a bedroom.

What it is made of

50% alpaca wool, 50% ultra-soft acrylic with recycled content. I am putting that right here instead of burying it, because "alpaca blanket" gets thrown around loosely and you deserve to know what you are buying. This is a real blend. The alpaca half is what makes it warm and soft as cashmere. The acrylic half is what makes it washable, hard to wreck, and $150 instead of $400.

Want the pure thing? The Royal throw is 100% baby alpaca, and it is priced like it.

Size

Two sizes. Queen runs about 90 by 78 inches and covers a queen bed with overhang. Throw runs about 78 by 45 inches and is the couch and camp chair size.

Reversible either way, so you get two looks in one blanket.

Where it comes from

Woven in Ecuador by local artisans on looms that have been running for roughly a hundred years. A portion of what you pay goes back to those artisans. That arrangement is a big part of why I brought this line in.

Care

Machine wash cold on gentle or delicate with a mild detergent. Skip the bleach and skip the fabric softener, both of which flatten the pile. Hang it or lay it flat to dry and reshape it while it is still damp. Do not put it in the dryer.

If it pills a little in the first few washes, that is normal for a blended fiber. A fabric shaver or a soft clothes brush sorts it out in about a minute.

Ships free. Every blanket on this page clears the $75 free shipping threshold on its own.
