“I found the inspiration for the Hudson Wrap in the Hudson Bay Company’s classic striped blanket. These blankets were originally created for fur trappers, traders, and natives to survive outdoors in frigid Canadian winters. My version is knitted in bulky-weight wool with plenty of length to wrap yourself up in to battle the cold!” ~ Jennifer Mattesky.
