Pendleton Blanket - Fossil Springs

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. A made-in-America wool blanket in a pattern inspired by the powerful waters of Fossil Springs in Arizona's Coconino National Forest. Every minute, 20,000 gallons of calcium-laden water pour from the base of a 1,600-ft deep canyon, laying down deposits of travertine limestone and creating fossils that inspire the area's name. In the center of this pattern, the springs surge to the surface, flowing out to fuel the wild waters of Fossil Creek. Woven in our Pacific Northwest mills, this blanket is a twin/robe size—a perfect accent at the foot of a bed, on the back of a couch or used as a wall hanging.
