that my Aunt crocheted for me 50 years ago! It was done in the colors of my university (actually, she messed up - it should have been red and blue - she did blue & gold. I didn't have the heart to tell her and I actually like this one better!). It is my "go-to" when the temps drop and I'm gonna' watch a movie or someone in the house wants to take a nap.
Yeah, I can't tell you the last time I'd heard of ANYBODY making or getting one of these - but I'll never part with mine!
Thanks, Auntie!!!!
