JOURNEY WEST BLANKET // PENDLETON
This dynamic USA-made wool blanket celebrates the pioneering spirit of Pendleton founder, weaver Thomas L. Kay, who journeyed from England to America, and onward to Oregon in 1863. The pattern highlights the universal appeal of geometric shapes and lines, images not unlike those seen in Native American art and motifs used in early Pendleton trade blankets. The hooked patterns inside the large diamonds are common symbols of luck and prosperity.
