About Blanket Boss

Welcome to Blanket Boss

At Blanket Boss, we believe every stitch tells a story. Nestled in the heart of Greenwood Lake, New York, our shop has been crafting cozy, personalized knit creations since 2000. What started as Barney’s passion project after relocating from Queens has grown into a beloved small business known for warmth, creativity, and community spirit.

A Homegrown Story of Craft & Creativity

Founder Barney brings over four decades of knitting experience and a love for blending traditional techniques with modern design. From humble beginnings, he built Blanket Boss into one of the few remaining knitting shops in the U.S.—a proud part of the Hudson Valley’s artisan community.

Our philosophy is simple: combine handcrafted quality, personal touches, and a willingness to explore new ideas. What started with blankets has expanded into sweaters, embroidery, silk screening, and promotional items—because creativity knows no limits.

What We Make

  • Personalized Knit Baby Blankets – Heirloom-quality, customizable with names, colors, and styles
  • Photo Blankets – Turn favorite photos or pet portraits into lasting keepsakes
  • Unique Apparel – From vintage-inspired rock & roll sweaters to quirky holiday knits
  • Embroidery & Vinyl Printing – Custom gear and promotional items for teams, schools, and businesses

Every piece is made with premium yarns that are soft, durable, and machine washable. Designs are knit into the fabric itself—never printed—so they won’t run, fade, or shrink.
