 These comforters are made from the wool I get at spring shearing just before before lambing starts in April. A friend of mine calls them the "non-electric electric blanket"! They are made of wool batting covered in 100% cotton unbleached muslin, tied with yarn every 10 inches to keep the wool from shifting. They are designed to have a duvet cover put over them. Wool is non-allergenic and extremely warm, yet these comforters are much lighter weight than a standard wool blanket. They make a humane alternative to industrial down, which nowadays is not coming from the occasional goose your grandmother might have prepared for a family meal! These comforters will last a lifetime and make a wonderful gift for important occasions such as weddings, anniversaries, baby showers or a house warming. Fabulous for Christmas, too!  Lap: (45"x60") $110 Twin: (90"x60") $175 Full: (81"x90") $240 Queen: (90"x90") $275 King: (108"x90") $345 ***** Update March 2019: All grey comforters now SOLD OUT, but there are a few white comforters still left at Hearty Roots Farm Store. E-mail me if you are interested - I'll have more wool to send to the mill in April so you can special order one for this fall.  *****Comforters normally only available by special order: If I am out of what you want, and you are interested, you need to put in an order no later than mid-April since shearing takes place the first week of April. I send some wool to my mill by the end of April, and the comforters are back in time for cool fall weather. I ask for a deposit of half the total cost when the wool goes to the mill, balance payable when the comforters get back in July. Contact me if you want to put in an order. gansvoort@gmail.com Lamb Pelts  White pelts and comforters are available at the Hearty Roots Farm Store right across the road now!
