An ideal spring staple - these soft knitted ponchos and wraps - lots of styles and colours now in. I continue to wear mine all through the summer on cooler evenings for a colourful coverup (pictured - the Llechen poncho).

Drefach Felindre in Carmarthenshire (once know as the 'Huddersfield of Wales' due to its numerous mills and spinners) - three streams converge here providing all the natural power they could want.

A cosy Victorian farmhouse in Carmarthenshire. Whitewashed external walls are typical of rural Wales. Whitewash is made from crushed and heated limestone. It was one of the cheapest ways to paint a cottage - historically available to the poorest of cottage dwellers.

A quick freshen up outside. Often you can do this rather than wash them. If you do need to wash your blanket - you can hand or machine wash in cold water with a gentle detergent and short gentle spin - wool hates heat and too much churning!

Spice colours - warm and glowing; with the sage green adding some mellow.

Niwl (Mist). One of our first lambswool blankets and still one of our most popular! This is a delicate, subtle design that works well in most colour schemes - its a touch of prettiness without being too twee.

Our popular organic cotton print - the Welsh Lady.
Wales is one of the only places in the UK that can claim to have a national costume (or in Welsh - the Gwisg Gymreig draddodiadol!). For all well dressed Welsh ladies out there....

We love it when our customers are happy! ☺️🔥

Harvest - Cynhaeaf.
A beautiful rich golden ochre mixed with oatmeal.
And guess what - bedcovers are in! But we have only four of them and no more coming until next year, so be quick if you had your eye on one.
