GRAMPIANS GOODS CO
This company focuses on a collection of products that are about typifying a natural lifestyle but going beyond just utility to something more inspired. They use their inspiration from the Grampians region to create things to suit both an adventurous spirit and nurturing at the same time. From soft recycled wool tartan blankets to synthetic-free aromatherapy candles these are things you will enjoy or can gift to friends and family.
The Antipodean Collection Check Blankets
One of the blanket collections offered by GRAMPIANS GOODS CO is the Antipodean Collection Check Blankets. They use contrasting colour combinations drawing on inspiration from nature and the idea of light and dark within all of us. These blankets are soft and warm and are not fuzzy so you do not have any itchiness or shedding. They are great as picnic blankets or as throws in the home or wherever you want to keep a snuggly and comfortable blanket. They measure about 175cm by 157cm.
Wool Scottish tartan
Another collection of blankets they have is the wool tartan blanket collection imported from Scotland. They are 100% wool and are soft but still durable. What could be more rugged on a picnic than a tartan picnic blanket! Keep it in your car for when it gets cold, over a couch to watch TV under, or use for camping. Again these are not fuzzy blankets so you will not have problems with shedding. These too measure 175cm by 157cm.

Rutland blanket
This great throw from Geelong Weaving Mill makes a great picnic blanket too. As well as being used to brighten up any home it makes a comfortable and attractive blanket to use when outside. It comes with contrast stitching and is made from 10% nylon and 90% Australian wool.
Conclusion
