There's something special about wrapping up in a blanket that's genuinely soft — not just on first touch, but wash after wash, year after year. This Buffalo Check Alpaca Blanket from Purely Alpaca is exactly that. Handcrafted by a family-run factory near the indigenous town of Otavalo, Ecuador — a place with a centuries-long tradition of fine fiber artistry — it brings real warmth and craftsmanship into your home. It also makes a thoughtful, lasting gift for weddings, housewarmings, or anyone who deserves a little extra comfort.
✨ Features
- 🧶 80% Alpaca, 20% Acrylic: A blend that delivers the natural softness and warmth of alpaca with added durability for everyday use.
- 📐 Two Size Options: Bed blanket measures 70" x 94" — fits up to a Queen-sized mattress (60" x 80"). Throw size measures 69" x 58", ideal for the couch or armchair.
- 🏔️ Brushed Striped Finish: The buffalo check pattern has a beautifully brushed texture that adds softness and visual warmth to any space.
- 🌿 Sourced from Ecuador: Made by artisan weavers in Otavalo, a region renowned for its rich fiber heritage since 2013.
- 🧺 Easy Care: Gentle machine or hand wash in cold water with a light detergent. Line or air dry. A short 5–10 minutes in the dryer helps restore the fluff. Iron on low if needed.
- 💪 Built to Last: Durable enough for camping trips and tested over years of real use — it still looks and feels great.
💛 Benefits
- 🛋️ Couch-ready comfort: Large enough to share (or not) — perfect for movie nights, reading corners, or lazy Sunday mornings.
- 🎁 A gift people actually keep: Whether it's a wedding present, a birthday, or a holiday gift, this blanket is the kind of thing people hold onto for years.
- 🌙 Warm without the weight: Alpaca fibre is naturally insulating, so you stay cosy without feeling weighed down under a heavy blanket.
- 🏡 Works in any room: Draped over a bed, folded on a sofa, or laid across a chair — the classic buffalo check pattern suits most interiors.
- ✌️ Two are better than one: If someone in your home is a blanket hog, getting two means everyone stays warm and happy.
