Made right in our Seattle studio as part of our Gold Label collection, this super soft, 100% Merino wool baby blanket was designed by Louie Gong (Nooksack) after researching traditional Coast Salish weaving. He often refers to the pattern as a "collaboration with the ancestors," as it was created after researching traditional Coast Salish weaving.
Coast Salish art is rarely represented in contemporary textiles, and Louie is proud to help push this particular, often overlooked form to the forefront of Native art and product offerings.
Although our blankets are created using modern technology, it was critical to Louie that he create a design that could be replicated with traditional Coast Salish weaving methods.
Though Coast Salish art is Indigenous to a broad geographic area that includes Seattle and Vancouver, it is rarely represented in public art or products. Louie is proud to help increase the visibility of this form.
