In addition to the AaBe x Knitwit blanket, we have developed a beautiful plaid, made from 100% high-quality wool from the Kempen Heathsheep. This unique wool comes from sheep that graze at De Wassum landscape management, after which it is spun and woven in Italy.
Our plaid combines traditional weaves with Old Dutch patterns and offers you the ultimate warmth and softness. Let yourself be wrapped by the warmth and charm of this unique plaid.
The plaid is undyed and has an off white with a sand color.
The AaBe x Knitwit blanket is spun with wool from Kempen Heath sheep. Kempen Heath sheep, with their thick, woolly coats, are more than just grazers; they are the silent protectors of the natural landscape. Grazing ensures that the heath remains grassy and vital and that young trees remain short. In their coats, the sheep spread seeds from faded herbs to new growth sites, and their manure stimulates soil life. In this way, Kempen Heath sheep play a crucial role in maintaining the natural balance in valuable natural areas. To ultimately make the blanket, The Knitwit Stable traveled across Europe. In an authentic family blanket factory in Northern Italy, the blanket was carefully crafted. Spun with wool from Kempen Heath sheep, we left the blanket undyed, in its natural color. At the end of its long lifespan, the AaBe x Knitwit blanket can continue its natural cycle, as nutrition for the soil.
