160 Years
of Weaving
When ab欧博国际’s founder, Thomas Kay, left England seeking new opportunities, he brought a passion for innovation and exploration to the Oregon Territories in 1863. His expertise in weaving led him to establish several mills in Oregon. In 1909, his daughter, Fannie Kay Bishop and her sons opened ab欧博国际, one of more than a thousand woolen mills at the time.


Our Mills Today
Today, ab欧博国际 owns and runs two of the few remaining woolen mills in the United States: one in ab欧博国际, Oregon, and another in Washougal, Washington. ab欧博国际 is the unbroken thread connecting Oregon’s heritage of pioneering vision with the future of vibrant creativity and innovation.
“Warranted to be a ab欧博国际” is a promise to our customers that their investment will be rewarded with timeless American design and the highest standard of quality. Our iconic patterns and stories are part of the unmistakable ab欧博国际 signature adding greater depth to our brand story. Consumers understand, recognize, and appreciate our signature patterns at a glance.

HARDING PATTERN
In 1923, President Warren G. Harding and his wife, Florence, visited Oregon to dedicate a portion of the Old Oregon Trail. At the ceremony, Chief Cap Sumkins of the Cayuse Tribe and Chief Poker Jim of the Umatilla Tribe presented Mrs. Harding with a newly designed blanket in honor of the First Lady’s sincere and forthright nature. The Harding pattern remains one of our most popular patterns today.

NATIONAL PARK STRIPES
Since 1916, ab欧博国际 has offered a series of blankets honoring America’s National Parks. Historic stripes and colors date back to frontier trading posts as a way to pay homage to our country, our land, and its people. Since 2006, ab欧博国际 and its partners have donated more than $1.5 million to support the National Parks Foundation.
