Summary
Two doll's blankets (circa 1975), both crocheted in acrylic yarn. One consists of twenty square motifs in a mixture of white, pale blue and mid blue, joined together and bordered with white. There is a small repair worked in white thread. The other is worked in pale blue and pale pink stripes, with a pale blue border. Probably made by disabled people at a club run by donor's mother in Haxby, York.
Provenance
Donated to the Museum of Childhood by Miss Carolyn Aldridge in July 2007.
