    Nicely done sir!

    Queen size is fine. But most important is that it not smell like a sheep or weird chemical.

    If it's un-washed, hence water-resistant, then it will smell a bit like sheep. If you wash out the natural oils, then maybe a chemical is introduced to do the same thing?

    I am interested in these blankets when and if available.

    Revival! Would love to know if you guys have sourced anything out?

    Narrowed it down. Now we go through weeks/months of sample selection, etc.

    Should be ready in time for winter.

    I'm in for a couple. Perhaps you could have some done up in the style of the Hudson Bay point blanket?

    I'm in for one or two as well. Any chance of Merino Wool from Newzealand? I have a few articles of clothing, no itch, no smell.

    I have. Balaclava made with this wool. Very fine stuff. No itch, no smell, warm, and wicks moisture well. It ain't cheap stuff though...
