Thread the Word marks first year of personalized blankets

Conover (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Thread The Word, a family-owned business founded by husband-and-wife team Peter and Annie Thomas in Australia, marks the completion of its first year of knitting personalized blankets in Conover, here in North Carolina. The company began U.S. operations in September 2025 and produces customizable blankets from 100% organic cotton, with names and designs knitted directly into the fabric. Founded in 2021, Thread The Word has sold more than 50,000 blankets worldwide. Its North Carolina operation forms part of that international business, providing a local manufacturing base for US orders of personalized baby blankets, custom baby blankets and larger blankets for children and adults. The first-year milestone comes ahead of the 2026 holiday season. Customers can select their designs online, and the North Carolina team knits each U.S. blanket order using those individual choices. The Conover operation is now in its second year of production.
