Description
Snuggle up in this handmade chocolate and sand striped afghan with a gold border. The large heavy-weight afghan measures approximately 60” by 90” of cozy warmth. Perfect for a chilly night to wrap yourself up with a good book! And, what better book to read than this author-signed copy of "Independent Vision: Dorothy Harrison Eustis and the Story of The Seeing Eye" (available in electronic text to the winning bidder upon request). Published in 2010, Miriam Ascarelli's meticulously researched book -- drawing on correspondence, private papers and newspaper accounts of the day, including rare items found in The Seeing Eye's archives -- is not only a history of The Seeing Eye, but a biography of Dorothy Harrison Eustis, the woman who started it all with a column in the Saturday Evening Post.
Special Instructions
Donated in honor of her Seeing Eye dogs, this beautiful afghan was lovingly crafted by a Seeing Eye graduate under the watchful eye of her Seeing Eye dog, Rita.
