Yeah, but the last time I went shirtless in public some folks tried to push me back into the sea. LD

| That's funny--when I look at the Northwest Traders site, I don't see "Witney" or "Whitney" but only the cheaper "trade blankets" and the hand-woven replica blankets, which seem quite good. I bet there aren't many new in the bag Early's of Witney blankets out there for sale... The prices there seem quite reasonable. Dick

Ah, well. And you have to do all that converting of pounds to dollars! Dick

Not all blankets are created equal. My old Whitney is suitable for about 90% my ronny nights in a lodge. For more warmth I will add another blanket. Some of the most useful, and really best looking, blankets I have came from yard sales. Very low cost and they get a renewal on life. |

| Turkey Foot Trading has white wool blankets for a pretty good price. I got one and cut out the machine sewn binding. I like it. |
