The Pure Wool Windmill Blanket in Blue Slate
As we enter the 'ber months and the chill sets in, we find ourselves reaching for cosy pure wool blankets at home. Although they're a year-round staple in our home, they become especially comforting as autumn shifts to winter.
Having multiple blankets at the ready is a must for us, whether for snuggling on the sofa or adding extra warmth to the beds during a cold snap. We couldn't be happier that blanket season has returned!
So here are 5 of our favourite British-made wool blankets to cosy up to this winter, each chosen for its exceptional quality and timeless appeal.
1. The Recycled Wool Blanket, made from excess yarn to create an eco-friendly favourite.
The Recycled Wool Throw, a perfect choice for the eco-conscious
Weald Store recycled wool blankets are made from the excess yarn left over from the production of other blankets and are available in a myriad of ever-changing colours.
Yarn which would otherwise end up in landfill is collected, re-spun and given new life. Because each batch of recycled yarn is unique, the resulting blankets are limited in number.
Plus they're a particular joy from my point of view because I never know which colour combinations are coming until I open the box!
2. The Pure Wool Herringbone Blanket in Mustard, a deliciously rich shade for colder months.

The herringbone pattern remains a timeless favourite in our blanket collection, and due to its popularity, comes in three beautiful colours.
I’ve selected mustard here for its warm and comforting hue, which pairs beautifully with natural tones, wooden furniture, and luxurious textures like velvet or corduroy.
3. The Pure Wool Check Blanket in Fireside, a great way to add seasonal interest to a neutral scheme.

After a long search for the ideal tartan, I believe I've found it with this blanket! The traditional plaid pattern has been updated with a contemporary colour scheme.
The uplifting and warming tones of ochre yellow, rust orange and teal blue are beautiful together and would really pop in a neutral decor scheme!
4. The Pure Wool Windmill Blanket in Blue Slate, an understated and elegant choice.
The Pure Wool Windmill Blanket in Blue Slate
An elegant blanket choice, featuring a windmill pattern in dark slate blue with a contrasting ivory fringe. I wanted something between navy and denim blue and love the understated slate blue tone of this blanket.
This particular style would be well suited to a period home, and would complement decor schemes with neutral paint colours and natural wood.
5. The Pure Wool Beehive Blanket in Oatmeal, a versatile neutral.

Featuring the perfect blend of oatmeal and ivory, this blanket is a versatile neutral that complements many home decor styles.
I love the idea of this blanket paired with vintage wooden furniture - a rocking chair perhaps - but it would also look exquisite on a plush velvet sofa.
That wraps up our curated selection of wool blankets for the winter season!
