Made entirely from recycled plastic bottles approximately 50, this blanket looks and feels like wool, but is the perfect picnic blanket or sofa throw. Soft, stain resistant, machine washable and great for indoor or outdoor use, it is mould resistant, incredibly easy to clean and hard wearing. Moths wont eat it and dust mites wont live in it, so it is great for allergy sufferers too. Hand loomed, so some variations in colour and size can be expected, some pilling can occur, as can some yarn snagging. Approximately 230 x 130cm.WEAVER GREEN With an estimated 35 billion plastic bottles finding their way into our seas each year, Weaver Green takes recycled plastic bottles, shreds and spins the plastic into a colourful yarn, and then weaves the yarn into beautiful, soft and environmentally friendly rugs and textiles with all the practicality of plastic, but the look and feel of natural wool. Weaving partners are independently inspected to ensure safe and fair working conditions for the crafts men and women, and the textiles are finished in their Devon based rug rooms.
