    Let’s see your vintage Pendletons!

    Thomas Kay, a British weaver, founded Pendleton Woolen Mills in 1863. In 1895 the company began crafting woolen blankets, men’s apparel began in 1912 and women’s wear not until 1949 starting with the enormously popular ‘49er jacket. The company continues today.

    Thank you! I have yet to find a pink plaid though, or the amazing green and purple plaid! I don't think I'd be able to let either of those go...
