NJ Fibershed’s own unique design with three solid natural color sections representing the three regions of New Jersey: North, Central, and South Jersey. The gradual transition between color blocks is a playful nod to the NJ debate of where, exactly Central Jersey starts and ends. The nine lines in the transition represent the nine farms who contributed wool to the project. Made with all local wool (NJ and eastern PA – including 25% by Dancing Waters Farm), entirely processed in the Northeast (VT, ME) and hand woven (upstate NY)! Single bed sized, one-of-a-kind blankets you’ll find nowhere else. The price for the blanket is $325. NJ Sales Tax applies for NJ residents or for shipping to a NJ address only.
Description
The NJ Fibershed Blanket was a NJ Fibershed project highlighting locally produced fiber products and provided a sales outlet for small fiber farms. Wool was collected from small fiber farms located within the NJ Fibershed region and created a blanket for customers seeking local products to support small-scale, sustainable farms. This blanket is a one-of-a-kind product as it’s made entirely with NJ wool and processed in the northeast USA (VT, MA, NY). You won’t find an equivalent anywhere else.
Over 400 lbs of wool was collected from 9 small farms with Dancing Waters Farm contributing ~25% of the wool for this project. The wool was washed in New Hampshire, spun in Maine, and handwoven in upstate New York. Our unique, modern design features three solid color sections representing the three regions of New Jersey: North, Central, and South Jersey. The gradual transition between colors is a playful nod to the fundamental New Jersey debate of where, Central Jersey starts and ends (the Governor finally resolved this Aug. 24 2023 with legislation S3206). The nine lines in the transition represent the nine farms who contributed wool to the project. Two versions were woven – one with a white background (sold out) and one with a grey background (my favorite). More project details are available in my blog.
The NJ Fibershed Blanket measures 78″ x 58″ (2m x 1.47 m), roughly US single bed sized and weighs 2.5 lb (1.13 kg). This is a one-of-a-kind product, made entirely with NJ wool and manufactured in the USA. You won’t find an equivalent anywhere else.
The price for the blanket is $325. NJ Sales Tax only applies to NJ residents or for shipping to a NJ address.
