Melin Tregwynt - Woven in Wales

I am always, always, ALWAYS cold. You would think I would be used to it by now...but no. I am constantly looking for warm clothes and blankets. So, it should not come as a shock that I was immediately drawn to the beautiful blankets from {Melin Tregwynt}. They feature gorgeous patters and look just about as warm and cozy as I would need :) In addition to the blankets, they also make clothing and accessories. Many of their items can be customized to your taste/needs - you can match your blanket or robe to your slippers! Besides blankets and clothing, they also make ceramics, lampshades and upholstery fabrics. Melin Tregwnt is a delightful white washed wool mill to be found in a remote wooded valley on the Pembrokeshire coast. There has been a mill on this site since the 17th century, when local farmers would bring their fleeces to be spun into yarn and woven into fine Welsh wool blankets. It has been owned by Melin Tregwnt family since 1912 and now employs around 20 people.
