Atlantic Blankets formed in 2007, when in need of a blanket
to comfort a little girl suffering a miserable bout of the spotty pox. Knowing
exactly the kind of blanket needed to help her feel better...the silky feel of
a much-loved brushed mohair throw that possessed magical curative powers of
cosiness!
Growing up in Cornwall we always had our trusty picnic
blanket stored away in the car boot, ready for any impromptu visit to the
beach, hikes across the headlands, keeping warm around an evening campfire or even
to just snuggle with for a long car journey. Our own tartan family blanket has
seen better days, however still resides (slightly patched) on the back seat of our family car.
Atlantic Blankets seasonal collections and designs change from stripes to
arans, to herringbone and checks, meaning there is always the perfect colour
and design to match and warm every interior. The latest Bloom Collection sings
of fresh spring colours and warm peaches, a perfect accompaniment to any and
every family picnic on Porthmeor or any of the surrounding St Ives beaches,
they have even designed leather straps for ease of carrying for when you are
out and about on your travels.
Our favourite is the Green Picnic Blanket with its
waterproof backing, ideal for avoiding soggy bottoms and sandwiches. We also
recommend checking out the Atlantic Blanket blog to see their top 5 picnic spot
recommendations here in Cornwall, so on your next self-catering holiday in St
Ives there are some great ideas of places to visit in and around the area,
Tehidy Woods and its coastal walks are amongst some of The Sail Loft teams
favourite weekend haunts.
