In collaboration with Squiggles by Charlie

Thousands Colors, master textile artisans from Lima, Peru, partnered with Squiggles by Charlie to create The 1776 Edition — a collection of heirloom baby blankets commemorating the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence.

This collaboration unites two legacies:

Peruvian craftsmanship, preserved since 1993 through hand-knitted and hand-embroidered textiles.

American heritage, celebrated through symbols of resilience, belonging, courage, and leadership.

Each blanket is hand-stitched in premium Pima cotton with silk thread, taking four to six hours of deliberate work by a single artisan. Limited to 250 pieces, these blankets are not mass production — they are wishes transformed into thread, designed to be passed down as family heirlooms.

As one catalog beautifully states: “This blanket is the meeting of two legacies.”

THE 1776 EDITION

Since 1993, Thousands Colors has honored Peru’s textile heritage with hand‑knitted and hand‑embroidered pieces in premium Pima cotton. Each motif—stars, quills, trees—requires hundreds of stitches, crafted slowly and intentionally by a single artisan. More than decoration, each thread carries care and legacy, designed to endure and accompany future generations.
