This beautiful hand crocheted afghan throw is not recently made. I acquired it at an estate sale. It is in very nice vintage condition. I see no tears or frays. Clean and well made. I have laundered it just because I like the items I sell to be clean and fresh. It came out nice and soft. The multicolored granny squares are 3 1/2 inches square. They are connected with black yarn and the edging is a black ruffly shell pattern. Pretty colors really stand out against the black trim. Add a pop of color to your living room or bedroom. The throw measures 60" long by 42" wide.
