Luxurious wool blanket that is a classic companion for camping out or staying in

This pure virgin wool throw is Pendleton’s modern interpretation of the classic steamer rug of the early 20th century, which accompanied travellers during long journeys made by ocean liner, steam train or horse-drawn carriage. The Carry Along Motor Robe is an update for modern campers and comes with a leather carrier that makes it easy to toss in the boot of your car or the back of a camper van. It’s the perfect size to curl up with when huddled around the campfire – though take it from us, it does just as well on the sofa at home as the ideal Netflix-and-popcorn companion.

The history of Pendleton Woollen Mills is woven into the history of modern America. It is a story that began over 150 years ago, with the entrepreneurial spirit of British weaver Thomas Kay. Arriving in Oregon in 1863, Kay forged a successful family business and in 1909 reopened the Pendleton Woollen Mill. The mill had been known for its Native American trade blankets, made for the local tribes of the Columbia River.

The company introduced new designs, colours and patterns, while expanding their market to the Southwest tribes. Designer Joe Rawnsley visited the Navajo, Hopi and Zuni tribes to learn their customs and colour preferences. Pendleton subsequently pioneered stunning Native American-inspired designs, which became coveted and much-prized heirloom pieces.

Today, Pendleton continues to set the standard for American style. With six generations of family ownership, its textiles are infused with authenticity, heritage and craftsmanship – all still proudly designed and woven in the USA.
