Havas blanket, 140 x 180 cm, natural dyed woad

Lapuan Kankurit’s Havas wool blanket features a multicoloured, geometric pattern designed by Heta Vajavaara. The weave is based on the designer’s own library, giving a fresh rhythm and depth to the traditional check pattern.

Soft and warm, the Havas blanket is perfect for snuggling on the sofa, laying over a bed or wrapping up on a cool evening. The wool blanket is woven at Lapuan Kankurit’s own mill in Finland using a blend of locally sourced Finnsheep wool and certified Wool Integrity NZ fibre. The blanket’s blue hue is dyed with a natural colour extracted from Finnish-grown woad.
