When there's a chill to the air and the stars are bright in the night sky above, our Galaxy blanket keeps you warm and cozy. The colonial star pattern of Galaxy is reminiscent of a 19th century blanket that we found at a flea market in Scarborough, Maine. Woven of washable, medium-weight merino wool, it has an incredible softness that's all its own.

Composition: 100% Washable Merino Wool

Care: Machine wash, cold on gentle cycle. Tumble dry low and remove promptly from the dryer. Do not iron. Do not bleach.

Long before Maine became famous for its lobster, it was known for all the textile mills located along the rivers and in small towns that crisscross around the state.  Maine Woolens continues the long tradition of textile excellence synonymous with the label "Made in Maine."  Maine Woolens employs local weavers, sewers, and dyers whose combined experience exceeds over 300 years!  

With respect to the environment, Maine Woolens is committed, whenever possible, to using renewable natural fibers from American growers which are then woven and finished in Maine.  This commitment helps support U.S. manufacturing and supports the economy.  Fibers woven by Maine Woolens have been referred to as "Living Green threads" and include natural premium grade sheep's wool (from American sheep), natural cotton, bamboo (a naturally anti-bacterial fiber) and alpaca.
