This is the first of several posts on what I found at the New York Gift Show last week.

Eleanor Pritchard’s supersoft, luxurious, and understated throws/blankets have yet to find a retail home in Chicago, but they deserve to. Eleanor designs them in her London studio and has them woven at a small traditional mill in Wales. You have to touch them to believe them (they’re made of pure new Scottish wool with a blanket stitch edge)—but for now, you can’t in our area!
