1970s Style Retro Throw

Deceptively simple. Spectacular results!

Calico prints, disco, bellbottoms, 8 track tapes and color tv with only 3 channels. Gas was $.50 a gallon, movie tickets were $1.50 and you paid $6.00 for a record album! The good old days.

Classic colors of avocado green, harvest gold, orange and brown define the ‘70’s. We had kitchen appliances in all these colors when I was growing up.

Simple stripes and a tassel border bring the decade to today’s home. The even moss stitch is easy to remember and used throughout.

A one row pattern repeat designed for the beginner and yet, still satisfying for the experienced crocheter. The border is a simple single crochet stitch and the tassels are super easy to attach!
