Momo Hand-Loomed Wool Fringe Blanket

Hand-spun wool and a deep fringed edge give the Momo Blanket its substantial texture

The Momo Fringe Blanket is a heavyweight layer woven from 90% wool and 10% locally sourced cotton. Its warm natural color, softly brushed surface, and oversized tassels bring texture to a bed, sofa, or reading chair without relying on pattern.

Each blanket is handmade by K’iche’ Maya artisans in Momostenango, a town in Guatemala’s western highlands known for its wool textiles. The wool is hand-spun, woven on traditional wooden looms, then washed and brushed by hand to preserve its natural character. 

Weight & Texture

Heavyweight Weave: The substantial construction provides warmth for colder nights and gives the blanket a full, structured drape.
Brushed Surface: Hand washing and brushing soften the wool while retaining its rustic texture.
Oversized Fringe: Thick tassels finish the edges and emphasize the blanket’s handwoven construction.
Natural Color: The warm ivory tone highlights the variation and texture of the minimally processed fibers.

Hand-Loomed in Momostenango

K’iche’ Maya Craft: The blanket is handmade by K’iche’ Maya artisans in Guatemala’s western highlands.
Hand-Spun Wool: Wool from indigenous sheep is spun by hand before weaving.
Traditional Wooden Looms: Each blanket is woven using wooden looms rather than industrial machinery.
Minimal Processing: The finished textile is washed and brushed by hand, preserving the character of the natural wool.

Around the Home

Across a Bed: Its generous proportions and substantial weight make it well suited as a cold-weather bed topper.
On a Sofa: Drape it over the back or arm to add warmth and woolen texture to a living space.
In a Reading Chair: Keep it nearby for a heavier layer during colder mornings and evenings.
Outdoors: Its durable construction also makes it useful for camping, picnics, and cool evenings outside.
