Knitted in Iceland

Icelandic Blanket - Beige with horses

Kidka “Fákur” horse blanket in beige · knitted in Iceland from Icelandic wool · about 140 × 200 cm

Sale price$345.00

The lightest of the three horse blankets, and the one reviewers keep buying as a present: brown Icelandic horses on cream, with a tan second side. Several have ordered it after a trip, for a friend or for the bed at home.

What you get with the beige Fákur

  • Brown Icelandic horses in two shades on a cream ground, knitted into the wool rather than printed
  • A second look on the back: warm tan with the horses in cream
  • Washed, brushed and steamed at the factory, so it is soft from the first evening
  • About 140 × 200 cm (55 × 79 in): the whole of a single bed, or two on a sofa

Icelandic wool, designed in Iceland

The blanket Icelanders reach for

Light on the lap and properly warm, because Icelandic wool has two layers: long outer fibres that shrug off damp, soft inner fibres that hold the heat. Air it out rather than wash it, and it lasts for years.

Questions people ask before they buy

Is it white or beige?
Cream rather than white: an undyed, oatmeal-ish ground with small natural flecks, and the horses in two browns. The back is the reverse, a warm tan with cream horses. It sits well with grey, white or wooden furniture.
Can I use the back as the front?
Yes. The horses come through on the back as a negative of the front, so there is no wrong side. Our close-up shows the two sides meeting at the overstitched edge.
What size bed does it fit?
Kidka gives 140 × 200 cm, about 55 × 79 inches. In our photo it covers a single bed from pillow to foot. One reviewer keeps it on top of her bed for extra warmth on chilly nights; on a double it lies across the lower half.
Is Icelandic wool soft enough?
This one is brushed after knitting, which raises a light nap, and reviewers describe it as soft. It is lighter than it looks and warm quickly. Use it over the duvet, on the sofa or around your shoulders.
Does it need special washing?
Mostly it needs none: Kidka says an airing is often enough. When it does, hand wash in lukewarm water with wool detergent or use a wool programme at no more than 30 °C, dry flat, and never tumble dry.
