[EU] Fig blanket - Whipstitch
This Seljak blanket is a luxurious, durable blanket for adventuring and homemaking, and everything in between. Because each blanket is made with offcuts reflecting the production run before it, they may vary slightly in colour and texture.
Seljak started in Australia, reusing waste fabrics to create their blankets, with a dream to move beyond. This blanket is that realisation. Sam and Karina Seljak investigated the waste textile sources in Europe and finding the most sustainable way to reuse this waste. They also investigated and found an ethically run mill in Lithuania to create these beautiful blankets.
The Lithuanian mill is 92 years old with Italian machinery that produces very high quality recycled textiles and intricate designs. After visiting the mill, a 3rd party textiles sustainability specialist conducted an independent audit of the facility to ensure environmental protection measures and workers rights were both up to the high standards expected in Australia.

Care for your blanket: Because this is a naturally antibacterial product, the easiest way to clean your blanket is to air it out by hanging it in the sun ( plus it's environmentally friendly). Spot clean dirty marks and spills with lukewarm soapy water. If necessary, machine wash at maximum 30 degrees with a wool wash and hang dry. Reducing machine washing extends your blanket’s life and reduces energy and water consumption.
