The Caernarfon Pattern

The appealing Caernarfon or Portcullis design is an iconic Welsh pattern with a fabulous heritage. Probably dating from the eighteenth century, the precise origin of the design is uncertain but experts believe that it later inspired many of the American folk art textile traditions. There were a significant number of Welsh migrants arriving in the United States in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Many of the Welsh who travelled to America in the early days settled in the state of Pennsylvania where the quilts and blankets of the Amish people now bear a striking resemblance to Welsh tapestry blankets.
