Product Description

Otselo blankets are true heirloom blankets similar to those which were used by your grandmothers and grandfathers.  They are almost hand-loomed from pure natural wool from Karakachan and other indigenous sheep high in the mountains of Eastern Europe. They are processed only with pure mountain river water to bring up the nap and pre-shrink them. After **6 hours of this water processing, they are dried in the sun.
Otselo blankets are made from virgin wool. This means the yarn is made from wool which comes directly from the sheep and not from some other products (recycled). The wool is a very long and soft fiber, with a beautiful healthy sheen, not unlike clean healthy human hair. Most of the colors are from the natural colors of the sheep. Some blankets made these days are from recycled wool ( not virgin) which has been cut, bleached, dyed, and chemically processed to give a uniform texture and softness, however, all this processing hurts the natural qualities of the wool, which becomes like something dead. Otselo blankets are **0% virgin wool. They are completely free of chemicals.

Otselo blankets are machine washable in cool water.Otselo blankets are warm and thoughtful gifts which will be cherished for generations. I hope you make the right choice.
