Materials Used to Produce Blankets:

Today 99% of Mexican blankets are made with recycled materials; these are clean new materials from the garment and textile industries.
Materials are delivered in large bundles just like the recycled cardboard boxes; the bundles are sorted in to colors, once this is done they are put though a process three different times to basically shred the material back to an original fiber about an inch and a half in size.
The fiber is then ready to be spun back in to a rough yarn. The yarn is now re-spun in to a yarn that can be weaved in to the blankets you now see.
