Kind Blanket - Chestnut

 Plant dyed, hand knitted Kind Blanket in chestnut dye

Every Kind Blanket is special and unique. Hand knitted in England from traditional Norwegian wool, it is edged with a halo of mohair and dyed with the natural colours from plants gathered in fields, forests and gardens that surround our studio in Kent. Each blanket tells the story of its colour.

The blankets display varying hues that the dyeing process yields from a single batch of vegetation -- from the vibrant and the deep to the soft and the watery. This limited edition of one-off Kind Blankets is made in house by Juniper & Bliss.

From collecting dye plants to knitting each Kind Blanket takes approximately 120 hours. We make them because we like to.

This blanket is an heirloom of the future. We hope you will enjoy it and pass it on for others to keep warm. 

Juniper & Bliss specialize in ethically produced hand made textiles. 

Kind Blanket - Chestnut

The abundance of freshly fallen chestnuts on the autumn forest floor is a dyer’s delight. This blanket evokes the change of the seasons, the coming of winter and the beauty of the autumn forest filled with rich colours, nuts, berries and mushrooms that sustain us and fatten up the birds and squirrels for the winter.

The mellow shades of chestnut brown are held together with an edging of soft and airy mohair.
