The Zero Waste Blanket is a twin-size 100% wool blanket (64" x 90", about 4.75 lbs) made from leftover yarn from Faribault Mill's own weaving runs. Each one comes in a mystery solid color and weave, so no two are alike. The dense utility weave is built for trucks, camping and picnics, and it is machine washable wool made in the USA. Against Faribault's patterned blankets it trades choice of color for a heavier, more rugged build. Buyers rate it highly for warmth, heft and value, but some report plant debris, knots and loose ends in the yarn, and a few find it scratchy or thinner than earlier orders.

The Zero Waste Blanket is a wool blanket made from leftover yarn from Faribault Mill's own production. When a pattern or color is retired, small batches of yarn remain, and this blanket puts that yarn to use. It is made from 100% recycled yarn.
The color and weave detail are a mystery: the loom determines the solid color and the weave detail, so each blanket varies. The weave is dense and durable, built for the elements. It has a classic wool hand feel.
The blanket is sized as a twin but covers more than a full-size mattress, and it is larger than a throw. It suits cars, trucks, camping and picnics. Faribault Mill has made blankets in the USA since 1865.
