But you know that these were crafted with loving care. They weren’t mass-produced at some factory. Someone actually took the time to crochet these blankets by hand, one at a time, over long periods of time.

I’m a little bit sad that with the new age of tech and instant gratification, a lot of the old way has gone away. A lot of what I knew as a kid no longer exists. But if you can find one of these old blankets, you just about have yourself a time machine that takes you back to a simpler time. Plus, you can take a really good nap.
