Pendleton was founded in 1863 when British weaver Thomas Kay sailed to Oregon in the US to set up his own wool mill. His eldest daughter Fannie took over and in 1909 she established a trade deal with America’s indigenous communities to produce blankets, robes and shawls. Over 100 years later, the business is still family-run and deeply connected to the Native American population. Made mostly from wool sourced from the US, the designs are put through a number of complex steps including carding, spinning and weaving, as well as the label’s state-of-the-art dye technology. Durable and unique, the woven patterns will make a colourful addition to any home.
