Pure New Wool Blankets of Distinction

Harlequin blankets, made with 100% pure new wool, have a simple but effective “whipped” ends. Choose whipping that is colour co-ordinating or contrasting, to match your style. These colour choices are where the inspiration for the blanket’s name comes from. The whipping is a delicate and minimalist finishing detail, which gives these blankets a contemporary, modern look.

The whipping is an incredibly durable finish, making the Harlequin a highly practical and particularly hardwearing blanket. As with all the John Atkinson wool blankets, the Harlequin is hypoallergenic and anti-microbial, making them ideal for those prone to allergies.

Made under the John Atkinson brand name by Hainsworth, the quality of craftsmanship in each blanket is splendid. Made using wool from the best quality fleeces sourced from sheep farms in Australia and New Zealand, which is then expertly blended before being spun into yarn. Woven on the widest looms in the UK, with 235 years of experience.

What is Pure New Wool?

In short new wool is wool straight from the sheep. Virgin wool is another name for it. Because wool is a long lasting fibre, it can be recycled. This means that new wool has a cachet, as it hasn’t been processed before.

Make a Blanket Your Family’s Heirloom

Wool is a fantastically durable fibre and combined with expert weaving means that a John Atkinson blanket will be as sought after in the future as they are now.
