This beautiful meditation blanket is hand-woven in an exquisite weave, combining the elegance of traditional motifs with the freshness of modern shades. Crafted from soft merino wool, it offers a comforting weight that is ideal for meditation or relaxation. The presence of silk in the weave adds a regal quality and enhances the shawl's softness, making it not only luxurious but also a true tribute to the exceptional craftsmanship of the Himalayas.
The people of the Himalayas take immense pride in their ancestral designs, and this blanket is a shining example of that heritage. The intricate patterns reflect the deep cultural roots of the region, passed down through generations and preserved with care.
Traditionally, the women of the region would wrap themselves in shawls like these in a unique manner that kept them warm during the harsh winter months. Today, these "patus" are still worn with great pride, especially on special occasions, as a symbol of cultural identity. Many older women continue to wear their "patus" every day, honoring their heritage and keeping the traditions of their ancestors alive.

HOW TO WASH YOUR SHAWL SAFELY:
Dissolve a little quantity of mild detergent - like gentle shampoo or woolen soap - with cold or lukewarm water (at 30 °C /86 °F maximum)
Submerge the shawl in the water and move it gently for a few minutes. Do not use fabric softener and rinse the shawl very well by running cool water through it to remove the soap.
You can then take out extra water by applying gentle pressure. NEVER RING, NEVER TWIST.
Remove the excess water by rolling the shawl in a clean towel.
Preferably lay it flat. If not possible, fold it once or twice to prevent the fibres to be stretched too much and hang it on the clothes line in avoiding direct sun or any proximity to heat sources.
Once dry, if available, the shawl can be steamed which will fluff the fibres. Otherwise, it can be ironed with a warm iron.

Beautiful shawl - lovely subtle textile pattern woven into the shawl was an added bonus I hadn't noticed in the pictures. the color is rich and exactly as pictured. I'd say if you are looking for an excellent meditation shawl that is long and wide enough to cover you completely as you are sitting,this is it!
Love this shawl so much. It arrived in a timely manner and well packaged, which was good because the package looked like it had a rough time in transit so the reliable packing was a blessing. The shawl is soft and beautiful and it's easily already one of my favorite pieces. I hope to buy others from this shop in the future.
