Meet the Brand
Today, in a historic mill nestled along the Cannon River in Minnesota, a 160-year-old story is still being woven. Faribault Mill endures as one of the last vertical woolen mills in America. Here, fifth generation craftspeople take raw wool and create blankets, throws, scarves and accessories of remarkable comfort and quality. Irreplaceable century-old machinery stands side by side with modern technology in our "new" mill, which was built in 1892. In 2022, we joined forces with another iconic American mill based in Maine that specializes in cotton – Brahms Mount. Together, we are devoted to upholding tradition and classic craftsmanship with our 100% Made in USA products designed to last for generations.Faribault Mill is a living testament to American craftsmanship. Our products are renowned for their comfort and quality and have been loved for generations. From providing woolen blankets for pioneers heading west to comforting our troops through two world wars, Faribault Mill is woven into American history.

The Origin of a Mill
Carl H. Klemer creates what would ultimately become the Faribault Woolen Mill Company. The original horse powered mill initially operated as a wool carding factory, turning local wool into wool batting.

Expansion Into Blankets
Cloth, flannel and wool blankets are offered by the Mill for the first time. Locals use these goods in their homes and buggies. New equipment would later be installed to meet demand for woolen goods in Faribault and the surrounding area.
