SteP Certified!

pendletonwoolenmills

SteP Certified!

We are pleased to announce that our century-old mills in Washougal, WA and Pendleton, OR are certified STeP by OEKO-TEX® (21001295 HOHENSTEIN HTTI). Both mills have been weaving for over 110 years and are continually updated for sustainability and innovation. These mills are the source for our by-the-yard wool fabrics, and crafting supplies like selvage and wooly worms.

STeP by OEKO-TEX® is a certification system for production facilities in the textile industry. Certification assesses production facilities at all processing stages to allow brands to communicate environmental measures. The Pendleton mills were scored in various areas including, chemical management, environmental performance and management, social responsibility, quality management, and health and safety.

This is a milestone on our path to certified sustainability for all our mill products. The process is long and requirements are stringent. Members of our mill teams have worked tirelessly to collect and submit the needed data, and projects have been identified and initiated to make it happen. 

“Pendleton is committed to creating a sustainable product lifecycle. As a vertical operation, the impact we have on the environment is a priority in every process. Certifying the mills for sustainability is a tremendous step in this journey,” explained Rolan Snider, Pendleton’s vice president of textile manufacturing. “The sustainability journey begins with our use of wool as a natural fiber, the long-term relationships with USA wool growers and now continues through the local production in our sustainability-certified mills.”

A New Pendleton Store opens in Seattle

pendletonwoolenmills

We’re back in Seattle

This is not a fabric/crafting store, it’s a Pendleton store very near the historic Pike Place Market in Seattle, Washington. We hope you’ll put it on your list of places to see when you’re up visiting the Puget Sound area. If you live there, please stop in and say hello. We are just two minutes from the Market, up one of Seattle’s famous hills.

This space is larger than our previous Seattle location, and our Pendleton plaids and patterns look beautiful with all the brick, wood, and vintage charm.

The photo above shows a company history timeline. We’re always excited to share the Pendleton story, and here’s a little clip of us installing displays about our history and community connections.

We carry it all!

The store offers a full selection of Pendleton’s home goods, apparel, and accessories. It’s a wonderful place for inspiration.

And you won’t want to miss our Pendleton shirt wall, right behind the cash wrap.

We originally created a similar wall for a trade show, and attendees loved it. We’ve been excited to adapt the idea for a retail store. Here’s a video of the construction.

Where to find us

We are located on the first floor of Seattle’s A.E. Doyle Building. According to the Viaduct History website, “The A. E. Doyle Building is one of the most elegant reminders of Seattle’s early retail corridor along 2nd Avenue. It opened in 1920 as the J. S. Graham Store not long after Frederick and Nelson moved north to Pine Street. This is the only Seattle example of the work of one of Portland’s most prominent architect, A. E Doyle. The large windows set in tall arched bays clad with terra cotta reflect the Italian Renaissance style.”

Remember, we are just a two minute walk from Pike Place Market at 117 Pine St, Seattle, WA 98101

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Pendleton Mill Tours are Back

pendletonwoolenmills

We’re back, and ready to show you around.

Pendleton is excited to announce that tours of our Washougal, Washington and Pendleton, Oregon mills are now open! If you’ve ever wanted to watch our beautiful fabrics being woven, you can at our two USA mills. These tours showcase the vertical operation that brings Pendleton’s iconic wool blankets and fabrics to life.

A Little PWM History

The Pendleton mill was originally built in 1893, and has been operating as Pendleton Woolen Mills since 1909. That is the year when Fanny Kay Bishop realized what an opportunity the idled facility held, and urged her three sons to buy and revive it. The Bishop Brothers restored and improved operations with the support of the Pendleton community.

The Pendleton mill has always specialized in traditional wool bed blankets. These are woven on jacquard looms to give our blankets curvilinear designs that are often different on front and back, for a reversible option. The company acquired the Washougal mill in 1912 to expand its range of fabrics, with specialized looms for plaids, herringbones, stripes, tweeds…all the weaves found in clothing textiles and plaid blankets.

Today’s Mills

In the early 1900s, the Pendleton mills were two of over 1,000 woolen mills operating in America’s 46 states. Today, they are two of the remaining four woolen mills in the United States. Both mills are continually updated for sustainability and innovation. Each mill offers a unique view into Pendleton craftsmanship.

The mill tour in Washougal, Washington walks guests through every step in the making of Pendleton wool blankets and fabric. This includes:

 –            Raw wool: sourced from local and global wool ranchers

–             Dyeing: state-of-the-art dye color lab to ensure color control and matching

–             Wool carding and spinning: turning wool into yarn

–             Weaving on dobby looms: creates Pendleton’s famous plaids, stripes and solids

–             Finishing touches: washing, hand inspection and boxing

The mill tour in Pendleton, Oregon offers guests an inside look into:

–             Jacquard looms: state-of-the-art two-story looms weaving graphic and pictorial designs

–             Wool spinning: turning wool into yarn

Come see us soon!

The Washougal Mill is located at 2 Pendleton Way, Washougal, Washington 98671. Tours are offered at the Washougal Mill on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday at 11a.m. and 1p.m.
