It's called "Then and Now" because it is actually a vintage pattern that Bernat has re-released in modern colors. The original was in very-70's-shades of orange, yellow, and brown. Bernat's recommended colors are softer creamy and peachy shades... but Bernat yarn wasn't available at the store where I was shopping, so I went with shades of pink in a different brand instead. I also chose to leave off the fringe. After all, there is such a thing as being too retro, right?

WOW! I love our colors. And I like it better without the fringe.
That should be the colors.
I like the colors! My mom made one like that years ago with the orange and brown colors. Good job!!
