Oversize wool hoodie from 1970s blanket

A one-of-a-kind kaleidoscope hoodie made from a vintage 1970s wool blanket, featuring a classic hoodie design with a roomy kangaroo pocket at the front. A wide neck opening, a generous hood, and super-long sleeves give it that extra-cozy, relaxed feel.

The brushed wool has an incredibly soft surface. The pattern is a riot of grey, orange, green, and yellow against a black background, with a wonderfully psychedelic kaleidoscope effect.

Condition & Disclaimer:

A vintage wool blanket given a new life as a brand-new, never-worn hoodie. As a handmade piece crafted from upcycled textiles, please expect minor imperfections in the fabric and craftsmanship, part of the charm of giving old textiles a new life.

Care Instructions:

Wool is self cleaning, so just air it after use. If you want to wash it, then hand wash gently in lukewarm water using a detergent specifically formulated for wool. Do not rub, wring, or twist the fabric. Rinse carefully in water of a similar temperature, then press out excess water gently using a clean towel. Reshape and dry flat, away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not tumble dry or hang while wet, as this may stretch the garment. Avoid sudden temperature changes to help prevent shrinkage and felting.
