    This was found during the last hours of an estate sale last summer (on a particularly "air conditioning" kinda day, ironically) so I was able to bring it home for <$5, IIRC. :-) :-) ;-) It first appealed to me just because of its color, then because of its seeming perfect condition and the obvious amount of somebody's (Mom? Grandma? ??) effort (love?) that must have went into it, once I looked a little closer at it (while snatching it up offa the table, that is...) and realized how *warm* it probably would be on a chilly autumn/winter day?

    At least I'm assuming it was handmade anyway -- it sure has the proper look/feel, and there aren't any sorts of label/etc on it...??

    It measures roughly 4' wide and 6' long and INDEED has already proven itself to be EVER SO COMFY now that its November and I probably won't have to turn my a/c on again until sometime in 2019... ;-) :-)

      More THANKS due to Brunswick, aura, & renedijkstra for tapping your <love it> buttons for this blanket!! I can report in total honesty that it remains a *most comfy* thing, whether in my chair, by bed, or anywheres else I (or a guest) might 'catch a chill'!!! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
