I recently wrote a post about visiting the mill shop at Bendigo Woollen Mill but this time I'm writing about a woollen mill we 'stumbled across' in Pendleton, Oregon in 2011.
This mill is famous for its colourful woollen blankets...
But the mill shop had lots of lovely home furnishings and absolutely gorgeous clothing...
I bought a remnant piece of fine woollen fabric...and a quite tiny blanket...
Tiny by choice as we still had 5 weeks of our driving holiday to go, including 2 flights across the country before heading home. Tiny though it may be...I just love my 'souvenir' of Pendleton!

Goodness - you seem to have woollen mills everywhere! That blanket is a wonderful souvenir of your holiday. You certainly seem to take woolly vacations :) Thank you for linking up with wool on Sundays :)
