I have been looking for a good wool blanket. Most I thought were over priced or to small. I found this Polish 100% wool blanket.

Just now I see they have free shipping so that makes the $15 blanket a even better deal.
The shipping was fast & I would order from them again.
The blanket has a slight odor, not bad.
It is 77" X 58" x 1/4" thick I did not weigh it but it feels every bit of 5 lbs.
Their is a tag on it but it is to faded to read.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I ordered 3 for myself and 1 for my dad. For $15 and free shipping you can;t go wrong.

I am curious to know as well. Might be a good option for a wool blanket anorak. Let me know how they look when you get them.

Mine came in today. They seem to be the exact same kind I already have. I thought the ones I had were Russian for some reason, but I guess they are polish.

For the price I'd say they are great.

And a heads up, they are not the 5.6lb that is listed on the site. There a little over 5lb. Close, but not quite there. And the length and width are all over the place. But all are somewhere around 5x6.

I have one that looks exactly like that, and it was supposedly Swedish. Maybe the tags are different? Maybe there was a company selling to everyone in the Northern European area?

Thanks for the info. How is the softness? My plan was to make an anorak but the only wool blanket I have experience with is the USMC in boot camp and they were pretty scratchy.
