New Wool Blankets for 2025 – Let’s Go to the Mountains

New blankets by Pendleton in virgin wool

Each spring, we unveil wool blankets that are woven in our USA mill in Pendleton, Oregon, and finished in our mill in Washougal, Washington. We’d love to introduce you to two new designs for 2025: Mystic Lake, and Cascadia.

Mystic Lake

This beautiful USA-made wool blanket commemorates a lake high in Montana’s Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. It’s beautiful, but it’salso a working lake, with a hydroelectric dam and fish hatchery. You can find photos of the lake, including the dam, here: All Trails, Mystic Lake

The nine-element design of peaks and valleys gives a nod to the dam with comb-like patterns between the main elements.

High in Montana’s Beartooth Mountains lies Mystic Lake, the second-deepest lake in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. High peaks surround the lake and cast their reflections in its still, cold surface. A pattern of triangular shapes represent this dramatic landscape, alternating with a solid neutral ground that represents the lake’s sandy beach. The icy waters support a fish hatchery, and colorful groups of narrow shapes represent rainbow trout darting through the pristine beauty of Mystic Lake.

Cascadia

Cascadia is the long chain of dormant or extinct volcanic peaks that stretch from California to Canada. It includes Mount Hood in Oregon and Mount Rainier in Washington.

In this USA-made wool blanket pattern, a banded pattern highlights a magnificent range of snowy peaks, along with the wildflowers and vegetation they support with their runoff.

Fields of wildflowers are banded by peaks that represent the mountains of the Cascade Volcanic Arc. Also known as Cascadia, this range stretches from Lassen Peak in California, to the Silverthrone Caldera in British Columbia, Canada. The towering snow-capped peaks include Mount Hood and Mount Rainier in the Pacific Northwest. The center band represents the floral bounty that blooms in the rich volcanic soil near these dormant volcanoes: coreopsis, marigolds, poppies, and so many more.
