Comfort Blanket

Above, a midcentury 100% wool stadium blanket in yellow, brown and beige plaid from Faribault Woolen Mill in southern Minnesota. I don’t know if this is an official Scottish tartan. The company changed its name to Faribault Mill in 2022 when it bought Brahms Mount, a cotton mill, in 2022.

The small fringed blanket is 100% wool. Excluding fringe it measures 50″ x 52″.

There is an approximately 8″ long “biscuit” shaped patch that looks to be professionally inserted, so I am guessing this blanket was sold as a second. If the patch were a jewel, I believe the shape would be called marquis. The patch is somewhat hard to see.

Apparently the Faribo name and three snowflakes are part of the branding. No zip code shown so maybe this is from before 1963 when zip codes came into use.
