YOUR WOOL PROCESSED TO BLANKETS
THE BASICS:
- Natural-Colored wools or wool and fiber blends
- Three patterns:
- Solid color - Warp and weft the same color
- Two-color diagonal twill pattern - Warp and weft different colors
- Bold vertical strips - Warp is different colored stripes, weft is one color (3 or more natural colors could be used for this blanket)
Wool (Fiber) Requirements:
Ten pounds of well-skirted grease wool or five pounds of clean wool per blanket for throw. Fifteen pounds of grease wool or eight pounds of clean wool for the twin or full-sized blankets.Left over yarn will be returned to you. The larger blankets will require more yarn but due to the variation in fibers, and therefore yarn weights, we can only estimate the amount of yarn we will need for each order at this time.
Pricing:
Scouring is $3.00 per pound for Wool Scouring Coup Members and $2.75 per pound for nonmembers based on the grease weight of your fiber. Spinning is $10.50 per pound for wool, and $11.50 per pound for 75% of more special fibers (i.e., llama, alpaca, or mohair).Having two or more blankets made from the same fibers can save yarn and money, especially if they can be made on the same warp.In addition, the following charges apply for weaving the blankets:
THROW
38 x 82 inches with 6 inch fringed ends - $154.00
Estimated Total Cost - $231.50
TWIN BLANKET
60 x 84 inches finished with binding - $245.00
Estimated Total Cost - $363.75
FULL BLANKET
Approximately 72 x 84 inches with blanket bindingSingle Blanket $294.00
Estimated total cost $412.75
Each order will be given special attention and you will be contacted if we have questions or foresee any problems with your fiber.
Sizes are approximate because of the unique characteristics of the fibers.
