Cooke Irish Woven Blanket | Cookstown Tyrone Family Crest Throw
Cooke Irish Woven Blanket | Cookstown Tyrone Family Crest Throw
Not many families get a Tyrone town named for them; the Cookes did. This premium heritage woven blanket honors the Cooke family crest against the Irish National Tartan.
The Cooke Name in Ireland
Cooke began as an English trade name and has been in Ireland since the medieval period, written into Dublin's records long before the plantations. Its most visible mark is on the map: Cookstown in County Tyrone takes its name from Alan Cooke, who laid out the town on church lands in the early seventeenth century, and it has kept his name for four hundred years since. Cooke and Cook spell the same name across Irish records, and both are found through Ulster and Leinster.
How the Cooke Blanket Is Made
The pattern is part of the cloth. Crest and tartan are woven in 100% premium cotton yarn rather than printed, and a traditional fringe finishes the edges.
