A good wool blanket outlives the person who bought it. These four are woven in the USA, each checked against the maker's own product page in October 2026. Three are wool or wool-blend; one is cotton for people who run hot or cannot stand wool.
Pendleton Glacier National Park Blanket
Pendleton’s National Park blankets are 100% virgin wool, woven in Pendleton’s Pacific Northwest mills, and the Glacier pattern runs $295–$450 depending on size. Faribault’s Scout Wool Camp Blanket is the more practical camp and truck blanket at $275. If wool is not an option, Brahms Mount’s Penobscot is woven from USA cotton.

Glacier National Park Blanket
100% virgin wool, napped for a thicker hand, from Pendleton's National Park series, which the company says is still woven in its Pacific Northwest mills. Twin through king; the queen weighs 5.9 lbs. Dry clean only. This is the blanket that ends up passed down.
Best for: Best heirloom
Scout Wool Camp Blanket
100% wool at 468 grams per square metre, twin through king (the queen is 6.3 lbs), and marked Proudly made in USA since 1865 on the product page. $275 list, and on sale at $223 when we checked. Heavier per size than the Pendleton and plainer to look at, which makes it the better one to throw in a truck or on a tent floor.
Best for: Best camp blanket
Penobscot Cotton Blanket
A 100% USA-cotton blanket from Brahms Mount, sold through Faribault Mill, which marks it made in the USA. Cotton is cooler and lighter than wool, which makes this the bed blanket for warm sleepers, kids' rooms, and anyone who finds wool scratchy.
Best for: Best for wool-averse
Penobscot Organic Merino Wool & Cotton Blanket
70% washable organic merino and 30% organic American cotton, hand-dyed and woven in Maine for Swans Island at a partner mill. The merino-cotton blend is softer than a camp blanket and lighter than all-wool. It is a lot of money for a blanket, and it is built to be a lifetime one.
Best for: Best splurge

Frequently asked questions
Are Pendleton blankets made in the USA?
Pendleton’s National Park blankets are: the product pages say they are woven in Pendleton’s Pacific Northwest mills and made in the USA. Not every Pendleton product is US-made, so check the specific item.
Is Faribault still made in the USA?
Yes. Faribault’s product pages say “Proudly made in USA since 1865,” and its site says its blankets are made at mills in Minnesota and Maine. Faribault also sells the Brahms Mount cotton blankets.
Wool or cotton blanket?
Wool for camping, cabins and cold bedrooms; cotton for warm sleepers, easy washing, and anyone who finds wool scratchy.
How much does an American-made blanket cost?
From $245 (Brahms Mount Penobscot cotton) to $795 (Swans Island merino and cotton) for the blankets we list, as of October 2026.
How do I keep a wool blanket from moths?
Store it clean and dry. Moths go for soiled wool first. Cedar helps a little; regular airing helps more.
