About the blankets

Woven from pure Icelandic wool — warmth that lasts decades

Álafoss wool blankets are woven from 100% pure Icelandic wool, then combed after weaving until they are soft as well as sturdy. The fleece's two natural layers make them lightweight, breathable and remarkably warm — the outer fibre even sheds water. A favourite gift, and a blanket you will still be reaching for in twenty years.

Good to know

Blanket questions, answered

Are Icelandic wool blankets soft or scratchy?
They have honest wool character — the fabric is combed after weaving to soften it, and it keeps softening with use. They are made for over-the-clothes cosiness rather than bare-skin swaddling.
How do I care for a wool blanket?
Mostly, air it out — Icelandic wool is naturally self-cleaning and odour-resistant. Spot-clean when needed; for a proper wash, hand wash cool or dry clean. Full care guide
Are they warm enough for outdoors?
Very much so. The wool insulates even when damp, breathes well, and the outer fibre naturally sheds water — Icelanders use these on terraces and in summerhouses year-round.
Do US orders pay customs on delivery?
No — duties and taxes are settled at checkout, so nothing is due when the parcel arrives.

Icelandic wool blankets are what we reach for at home: woven from the wool of Icelandic sheep, they're unusually light for how warm they are, naturally breathable, and they last for decades. This collection gathers the blankets we trust from Iceland's makers — Álafoss, Alrún, Kidka, Varma and LÍN Design.

How do you choose an Icelandic blanket?

Start with how you'll use it. For the sofa and cool evenings, a classic throw in the sheep's natural greys and creams goes with everything — see the solid colours. If you want the blanket to be the statement, the patterned jacquards weave in horses, birds and traditional motifs. For the smallest Icelanders-at-heart there are baby blankets, and Kidka's horse and puffin designs make a gift that says Iceland without a word.

Wool blankets shrug off spills and odours better than cotton — air them out, spot-clean, and they'll outlive the sofa. Woven in Iceland, sold by a family that uses them daily.
