Natural Dyes
Our Shasta Blankets are dyed with reactive dyes. Reactive dyes are highly colored, organic substances that bind chemically with natural fibers using Lanasol Pigments. This is the best method available for dyeing wool fiber without toxicity.
Below are some of the advantages of this dye method:
- Lanasol Pigments delivery the same quality as chrome dyes.
- Natural dyes use less energy than most commercial dyes.
- Dyed in a batch method. All dyed are completely exhausted into the scale areas of the wool chain, thereby not leaving any residual dyestuff. In other words, green dyeing.
- Wool dyed with Lanasol Pigments produce a far superior average fiber length. As a result, this process creates finer quality fabrics.
- Complies with all AATCC Test Standard Criteria.

Very beautiful and clearly top notch quality but a little scratchy for what we were hoping for.
Shasta Blankets
We are loving our new blanket. It’s soft—not scratchy— and very warm! We used it to replace two cotton blankets, which weren’t enough to keep us warm at night anyway, and now are toasty warm. It’s an awesome blanket. I wish I’d bought one years ago.
I’ve gifted several of these cozy throws to friends and family. They are a high quality, super warm and classic gift that never goes out of style and always remains useful.
This blanket is soft, yet very durable. We bought it as a throw, but my kids loved the feel, smell, and warmth of it so much they have taken it on as their night time comforter. The red color is vibrant, and it's nice to have a lightweight blanket that also provides warmth when needed. I highly recommend this item!
