It’s the 50th birthday of Lapuan Kankurit. 50 years filled with exultant joys, heart-breaking hardships, remarkable friendships, bold breakthroughs, beautiful designs – 50 years filled with more memories than a mind could possibly hold. Our family’s journey in the world of textiles began all the way back in 1917 with Juho Annala, who founded a felt boot factory in Lapua and subsequently laid the groundwork for the founding of Lapuan Kankurit in 1973. The past is the cornerstone on which we ground our work and our mission. And it’s from this ground up we peer over the horizon to feel the fresh wind blowing in our faces.

It’s a wind that carries promises of more memories to be made, of laughter, of freedom, of dreams. Of a deeper connection between Earth and its denizens. It makes no guarantees of things always being easy, but promises them to be worthwhile.

This is the air that our upcoming collection carries too. We wish you joy and light for the coming spring!

In our 50th anniversary year, we want to highlight the classics of our collection. Every month we introduce you to the long-standing classics in our collection. Join us to discover the Finnish design classics! The PUIKKO (previously Eskimo) pattern has been in our collection since 2015. The PUIKKO pattern was designed by Reeta Ek, who was awarded with The Young Designer of the Year prize of 2017. 

PUIKKO blanket is made of 100% wool. The product is finished soft in our production which gives the feel and look of real wool. This lightweight wool blanket is perfect for year-round use. PUIKKO bag is made of an easy-care 100% bio-organic cotton. The bag is lightweight and a fair size, so it is perfect for weekend trips and beach vacations. Also take a look at the PUIKKO hot water bottles in the SALE category!
