A Short History of Trade Blankets – Kotah Bear
As trading posts expanded locations and offerings, blanket manufacturers realized their new Native American customers wanted to purchase blankets that were beautiful, as well as practical. Many of the woolen mills who manufactured blankets sent their designers to travel and live among the various tribes to see what designs would appeal the most to their new customer base. An example that will most likely be known is Pendleton Woolen Mills.

BEYOND BUCKSKIN: The Strange History of the Indian Trade Blanket
The Pendleton Factory Jacquard Loom During the Early 20th Century By the late 1800s, these machine-made blankets had flooded the market, so the Navajo had fewer outlets for their textiles. And as the 19th century progressed, political pressures and stresses - including the loss of substantial populations of the Churro sheep - made it increasingly difficult for the Navajo to weave and trade their textiles to other Native American tribes.

r/IndianCountry on Reddit: “Pendleton Indian Partnerships”?
August 29, 2024 -
I’m looking at these blankets from Pendleton Woolens. I know they aren’t native owned, but they have all this copy about meaningful partnerships with native peoples, and that the designs were co-created with native artists and craftspeople.
This is bullshit, right? My instinct is that this is marketing speak for “we want to sell blankets with appropriated native designs but we would really like to not be criticized about it”, but I don’t really know. They do name a few more specific relationships with specific tribes and bands, and it’d be cool if it was legit.
Y’all have any insight?
