Hand-Woven "Empointer" Blanket

This is where it all started. In the late 1600's the French started to make threaded stiches on cloth. This is what the word empointer means. The English starting using the word "Points" for the fur trade in the 1780's. The English using the system for the price of a blanket where the French used it for just sizing. Thus by changing from size to a price system the English "Point blanket was started. The French changed the name to "Plew", and the whole Plew, or Point system started. The French made Blankets with the stripes together. these are some of the most Beautiful patterns in any blanket. We make these to a higher standard than what was originally made.
