Description
A handmade crocheted afghan throw blanket constructed of multiple vertical panels joined together. The design features alternating bands of wide solid dusty pink panels and narrower panels with a geometric staggered zigzag pattern. This repeating motif is worked in a palette of cream deep burgundy and light pink yarns. The stitch work consists of consistent rows of double crochet throughout the main body. The panels are connected with visible crocheted seams and the entire piece is finished with a simple crocheted border on the short ends. The material is a synthetic yarn typical of mid-to-late 20th-century domestic textiles. No maker marks labels or tags are present on the item.
Condition report:
The blanket appears to be in good overall condition. The crocheted stitches are uniform with no visible holes tears or significant snags in the main body (photo 1). The edges show minor natural curling and the surface displays light even pilling consistent with age and typical use for a vintage textile. There are no large or prominent stains visible on the upper surface.
