Item Description

Our Harmony blanket, the softest cashmere and cotton are combined to create an all season blanket of likeness and warmth. While it's textured Herringbone Chevron is reminiscent of an old fashioned Maine-made woolen blanket, the secret of Harmony is its softness and the gentle play of colors. It is a new twist on an old classic. Cotton keeps it cool for warm, late spring and summer nights, and the cashmere adds a layer of warmth for cool to cold fall and winter nights. If you have the opportunity, visit the town after which our blanket is named. Harmony, Maine is found in a region that has the greatest temperature fluctuations in the state!

Long before Maine became famous for its lobster, it was known for all the textile mills located along the rivers and in small towns that crisscross around the state.  Maine Woolens continues the long tradition of textile excellence synonymous with the label "Made in Maine."  Maine Woolens employs local weavers, sewers, and dyers whose combined experience exceeds over 300 years!  

With respect to the environment, Maine Woolens is committed, whenever possible, to using renewable natural fibers from American growers which are then woven and finished in Maine.  This commitment helps support U.S. manufacturing and supports the economy.  Fibers woven by Maine Woolens have been referred to as "Living Green threads" and include natural premium grade sheep's wool (from American sheep), natural cotton, bamboo (a naturally anti-bacterial fiber) and alpaca.  

This Maine Woolens blanket is a luxury you can afford.  Start your collection now!
