Faribault Pure & Simple Wool Blanket
A $245-and-up bed blanket made from 100% wool in one of America's remaining vertical woolen mills. The premium is refreshingly literal: fiber, weight, domestic manufacture and a design meant to remain useful for years.
The Pure & Simple is a 477-GSM middleweight blanket woven from 100% wool in Faribault, Minnesota. It is offered from Twin through King, is machine washable and line dryable, and deliberately sits between decorative throw and heavyweight winter blanket.
The evidence sheet
Why not buy a cheaper blanket?
Because the value proposition is unusually inspectable. There is one natural fiber, documented domestic production, substantial fabric weight and straightforward care. It is not a luxury-premium argument built around a logo or a vague claim of softness.
Material over bedding mythology
This is quiet quality: material and manufacturing explain most of the price, and the product becomes more sensible the longer it stays on the bed.
The catch
Classic wool has texture. Buyers expecting cashmere softness may find it firmer than anticipated, and wool can shed. This is a layering blanket first, not a plush synthetic comfort object.
