RJ: The idea of you crocheting is so, so great, actually.

Jane: Yes. I’ll tell mom, though I think nothing would make her part with it. Also, as I write this, I realize, my mom’s name is also Jane. This makes me think you’d know how she feels about this.

Sd: So very 70s.

And Mattilda: It was unreal, how comfortable that couch was. Looking at the picture makes me miss it all over again.

Sofa looks like one my mother still has– from Harnden furniture out of Vienna, NY, if memory serves.

Cute, you were/are.

And Jane K is dead on about the granny squares. In a past life I bought and sold antiques and toward the tail end of that “career” I kept my eye peeled for just such handiwork.

Later in life, I attempted to crochet my own. Can you imagine?

Cheers.

The style of that blanket, called a “granny square afghan,” is very “in” again. Alex, if you had it, you would be so retro. Find it! Throw it on the couch you own now!

Adorbs! I love the pants-socks combo. Dare I say, VERY ’70S?

Wow that couch almost looks like a velvet!
