The PENDLETON legend began at the turn of the 20th century, when a woolen mill in Pendleton, Oregon began producing beautiful wool blankets in vivid colors and authentic designs for the neighboring Umatilla and Cauyse tribes.
Inspired by the vivid colors and intricate designs of local and southwest Native American tribes, Pendleton created blankets were prized for ceremonial use and became the standard of value and quality that continues to this day.
For over a century, Pendleton blankets, robes and shawls have been woven into the history and traditions of Native Americans.
