A soft alpaca blend blanket in warm straw and charcoal tones, made for cool nights, slow mornings and comfort that moves with you.
Its golden straw base and soft charcoal stripe pattern feel earthy, natural and quietly graphic. The design has a clean, timeless simplicity that works beautifully across both home interiors and open-air settings. It brings warmth and texture without feeling loud, making it an easy everyday layer for bedrooms, cabins, bell tents and vanlife escapes.
Alpaca fibre is loved for its exceptional softness, warmth and lightness. Naturally insulating and breathable, it helps keep you comfortable as temperatures shift. The acrylic component adds strength and resilience, supporting the blanket through frequent use, travel, packing, airing and season-after-season living.
The Wattlegrass Blanket is woven from an 80% alpaca and 20% acrylic blend, bringing together the natural softness and warmth of alpaca with added durability for regular use. Lightweight yet insulating, it offers warmth without unnecessary heaviness; ideal for layering across the bed, folding into the van, or wrapping close beside the fire.
Soft, warm and quick-drying, The Wattlegrass is a practical comfort piece designed for life between home and elsewhere.
